FCP34050 - 50 Amp Circuit Breaker

FCP34050 - 50 Amp Circuit Breaker

The FCP34050 is a 50 Amp three-pole thermal magnetic molded case circuit breaker used in commercial and industrial electrical systems where the existing breaker specifications need to be matched. This FCP frame breaker is commonly used when maintaining the original amperage rating, voltage rating, and three-pole configuration is important for keeping the electrical system consistent.

The FCP34050 uses a thermal magnetic trip mechanism to provide protection against overloads and short-circuit conditions. The thermal trip helps respond to sustained overcurrent, while the magnetic trip helps respond during fault conditions. This makes it a practical choice for equipment that requires properly rated circuit protection without changing your existing setup.
