FC34060 - 60 Amp Circuit Breaker

FC34060 - 60 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're replacing a circuit breaker, matching the amperage is only part of the process. It's a good idea to compare the catalog (part) number, breaker type, frame, amperage, number of poles, voltage rating, interrupt rating (A.I.C.), dimensions, and terminal configuration before installation. Even breakers that appear similar can have important differences, and verifying these specifications helps ensure compatibility with the existing electrical distribution system.
