KH36070 - 70 Amp Circuit Breaker

KH36070 - 70 Amp Circuit Breaker

The KH36070 is a 70-amp, 3-pole Type KH molded-case circuit breaker intended for use with compatible I-Line panelboards. For maintenance and replacement work, its full set of specifications is worth checking—not simply the 70A rating. This breaker has a thermal-magnetic configuration, operates at 60Hz, and is specified at 40°C. When you're working with legacy equipment, compare the breaker type, dimensions, pole count, amperage, voltage, and AIC requirements to those of the breaker being replaced and the panelboard specifications. Where those characteristics match, the KH36070 may provide the form, fit, and function required for the application.

Key Features and Benefits

• 70-amp rating: Suited to compatible applications that specifically require a 70A breaker.

Material Compliance and Certifications

No specific third-party certification or material-compliance information was included in the supplied specifications for the KH36070. For that reason, UL, RoHS, REACH, or other certifications should not be assumed from the information provided.

Where It Works Best

The KH36070 is best suited for existing and legacy I-Line panelboard applications that require its specific Type KH configuration. It's especially relevant when maintenance work requires a 70A, 3-pole thermal-magnetic molded-case circuit breaker and the existing equipment has the same physical and electrical characteristics.

Before installation, check more than the catalog number. Confirm the 70A rating, three poles, Type KH designation, 60Hz frequency, 40°C specification, physical dimensions, and the appropriate AIC rating for the system voltage. The panelboard itself should also be verified as compatible with this breaker configuration.
