KGL32175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

KGL32175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're replacing a breaker in existing electrical equipment, the part number and physical configuration can tell you just as much as the amp rating. The KGL32175 is a 175-amp, 3-pole Type KGL molded-case circuit breaker featuring a PowerPact™ K-Frame, thermal-magnetic configuration, and cable-in/cable-out connections. For existing and legacy equipment, confirm the KGL type, K-Frame, 175A rating, three-pole arrangement, connection style, AIC rating, and dimensions rather than relying on amperage or appearance alone.

Key Features and Benefits

• 175-amp rating: Matches applications that specifically require a 175A molded-case circuit breaker.
• Three-pole configuration: Provides the pole arrangement needed for compatible three-pole equipment.
• Type KGL: Gives maintenance personnel an important identifier when matching an existing breaker.
• PowerPact™ K-Frame: Helps establish the required frame configuration and physical fit.
• Thermal-magnetic configuration: Matches equipment designed around this breaker-and-trip configuration.
• Cable-in/cable-out connections: Clearly identifies the connection arrangement for compatibility checks.

Material Compliance and Certifications

Specific certification and material-compliance information was not included in the available specifications for the KGL32175. Accordingly, certifications or compliance standards such as UL, RoHS, REACH, or other listings should not be assumed.

Where It Works Best

The KGL32175 is best suited to compatible existing and legacy electrical equipment that calls for its particular combination of Type KGL construction, PowerPact K-Frame, 175-amp rating, three-pole, thermal-magnetic configuration, cable-in/cable-out connections, and 65k AIC at 240VAC.

For replacement work, it's worth checking the physical side of the match too. Compare the 4.19"W x 7.00"L x 3.31"D dimensions with the existing breaker, then verify the part number, frame, poles, amperage, connection arrangement, and interrupting rating. A close review of the complete specification helps determine whether the KGL32175 meets the required form, fit, and function for the equipment.
