MAL36700 - 700 Amp Circuit Breaker

MAL36700 - 700 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you replace a breaker in existing electrical equipment, the small details matter as much as the amperage. The MAL36700 is a 700 amp, 3-pole MAL thermal magnetic molded case circuit breaker specified for 60Hz operation at 40°C. For legacy electrical equipment requiring the same MAL configuration, these known ratings and dimensions provide the practical details needed for a careful replacement match. When the type, amperage, pole count, A.I.C. ratings, dimensions, and connection requirements agree with the application, the MAL36700 can be considered a form, fit, and functional replacement candidate.

Key Features and Benefits

• 700 Amp Rating: Rated at 700A for applications specifically requiring this current rating.
• Three-Pole Design: The 3-pole configuration provides a clear specification to match against the existing breaker and equipment.
• MAL Type: Identified as an MAL breaker, an important detail when sourcing a replacement for compatible legacy electrical equipment.
• Thermal Magnetic Operation: The supplied specifications identify the MAL36700 as a thermal magnetic circuit breaker.
• Line and Load Lugs Included: Both line-side and load-side lugs are included, removing guesswork about this particular connection detail.
• 60Hz, 40°C Rating: Specified for 60Hz operation with a 40°C temperature rating.
• Built to Last: Solid molded-case construction suited to its intended electrical application when properly selected, installed, and maintained.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The available specifications for the MAL36700 did not include specific agency certifications, listings, or material-compliance information. Therefore, do not assume UL, IEC, RoHS, REACH, or other certification status.

If the application requires a particular listing or material-compliance standard, verify the markings and applicable technical documentation for the individual breaker before installation.

Where It Works Best

The MAL36700 700 amp circuit breaker is best suited as a replacement candidate for compatible existing or legacy electrical equipment that requires a 700A, 3-pole MAL thermal magnetic molded case circuit breaker with matching electrical and physical specifications.
