KH36175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

KH36175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

If you're looking for a KH36175, chances are the breaker needs to match a fairly specific I-Line panelboard application. This is a 175-amp, 3-pole Type KH molded-case circuit breaker with a thermal-magnetic configuration, rated for 60Hz and specified at 40°C. If the breaker type, dimensions, poles, frequency, temperature specifications, and voltage-specific AIC rating all meet the equipment requirements, the KH36175 may be suitable for the application.

Key Features and Benefits

• 175A, 3-pole breaker for applications requiring this specific amperage and pole configuration.
• Type KH molded case design intended for compatible I-Line panelboards.
• Thermal-magnetic configuration for equipment specified to use this breaker arrangement.
• The 60Hz and 40°C specifications provide additional details to verify application requirements.
• Well suited to the maintenance of legacy electrical equipment where correct form, fit, and ratings are important.

Material Compliance and Certifications

No specific certification or material-compliance information was included in the supplied specifications for the KH36175. For that reason, certifications or standards such as UL, RoHS, or REACH should not be assumed.

Where It Works Best

The KH36175 makes the most sense in existing or legacy I-Line panelboards that call for this particular Type KH breaker configuration. In those situations, finding the right part isn't about choosing something that simply looks similar. The electrical ratings and physical fit need to agree with the equipment.

For replacement work, compare the existing breaker with the KH36175 point by point: 175 amps, three poles, Type KH, 60Hz, 40°C, dimensions of 4.50"W x 10.50"L x 4.38"D, and the applicable AIC rating at your system voltage. Also verify any mounting, connection, or installation-specific requirements that aren't covered by the supplied specifications.
