FBV36TE040RV - 40Amp Circuit Breaker

FBV36TE040RV - 40Amp Circuit Breaker

The ABB FBV36TE040RV is a 40 Amp, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker from the Record Plus® series. It uses the FB100 frame and is rated for 240 Vac, 480 Vac, and 600Y/347 Vac electrical systems. This breaker is commonly found in commercial and industrial distribution equipment where the existing breaker needs to be replaced without changing the original panel arrangement.

The important part with this model is not just the 40 Amp rating. The RV configuration identifies the breaker as having load lugs and line connections for compatible General Electric Type AD panel applications.

When you're selecting a replacement breaker, verify more than the amperage. The frame size, pole count, voltage rating, interrupting capacity, wire range, and connection configuration all play a role in making sure the breaker matches the original equipment.
