HDA36020 - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

HDA36020 - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

The Schneider Electric HDA36020 PowerPacT H circuit breaker is a 20 amp, 3-pole thermal-magnetic breaker built to protect commercial and industrial electrical distribution systems from overloads and short circuits. Designed for I-Line panelboard applications, it installs quickly using Schneider Electric's I-Line connection on the line side, while mechanical lugs on the load side accept either copper or aluminum conductors. Whether you're replacing an existing breaker or outfitting a new panel, the HDA36020 offers a straightforward solution that helps keep electrical systems operating safely.
