JGA36150 - 150 Amp Circuit Breaker

JGA36150 - 150 Amp Circuit Breaker

The JGA36150 is a 150A, three-pole PowerPacT J-Frame circuit breaker with an I-Line connection on the line side and mechanical lugs on the load side. That connection arrangement is an important detail when you're checking a replacement against equipment already in service. The load-side AL175JD terminal accepts 4 AWG through 4/0 AWG aluminum or copper conductors. It also has an 80% continuous current rating, an ABC phase connection, and an integral push-to-trip button. With a 7.5 × 4.09 × 3.4-inch footprint, the JGA36150 provides concrete dimensions for comparison with the existing installation. The JGA36150 is built to last, while its documented ratings, connections, and physical size make it easier to confirm form, fit, and function before installation.

Key Features and Benefits

• 150A, three-pole J-Frame configuration: Provides clear electrical and physical identifiers for compatibility checks.
• I-Line line-side connection: Uses an I-Line bracket arrangement, with mechanical lugs provided on the load side.
• Thermal-magnetic protection: Provides the specified overload and short-circuit protection.
• AL175JD load terminal: Accepts 4 AWG through 4/0 AWG aluminum or copper conductors.
• Integral push-to-trip button: Allows the circuit breaker to be manually tripped.

Where It Works Best

The JGA36150 is suited to compatible distribution equipment that calls for a 150A, three-pole PowerPacT J-Frame breaker with I-Line construction and thermal-magnetic protection. Its I-Line line connection, load-side lugs, ABC phase connection, and documented physical dimensions are especially important when matching it to existing or legacy equipment.
