LA36150 - 150 Amp Circuit Breaker

LA36150 - 150 Amp Circuit Breaker

Safeguard your electrical system with the Schneider Electric LA36150—a dependable 150 A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker built for demanding environments. With dual ratings of 600 VAC (22 kA interrupting capacity) and 250 VDC, it handles both AC and DC loads with confidence. Thanks to its thermal-magnetic trip unit, the LA36150 reacts precisely to both overloads and short circuits, helping prevent downtime and equipment damage. The built-in push-to-trip feature allows you to test operation safely without exposing live parts, and the breaker supports both manual switching and automatic tripping under fault conditions.

Key Features and Benefits

• High Load Handling: 150 A nominal current enables it to control heavy circuits in industrial, commercial, or OEM panel systems.
• Precision Protection: The thermal portion reacts to sustained overloads, while the magnetic part responds instantly to short circuits, giving you dual-mode fault response.
• Flexible Mounting: Designed for I-Line plug-in mounting, it’s easy to integrate into standard bus systems or retrofit into existing panels.
• Safe Test Feature: The push-to-trip button lets service personnel verify the mechanism’s responsiveness without touching live conductors.
• Manual & Automatic Mode: You can manually open the circuit for service and rely on automatic tripping in the event of abnormal conditions.
