NC36600 - 600 Amp Circuit Breaker

NC36600 - 600 Amp Circuit Breaker

The NC36600 is a 600A, 3-pole molded-case circuit breaker designed for compatible I-Line plug-in applications. It's a Type NC breaker with a thermal-magnetic trip mechanism, making it a practical match for existing equipment that calls for these specific electrical and mounting characteristics.

Interrupting capacity depends on system voltage. The NC36600 is rated 65k AIC at 600VAC, 100k AIC at 480VAC, and 125k AIC at 240VAC. It measures approximately 12.12" high x 14.98" wide x 8.07" deep.

If you're replacing a breaker in an existing installation, the part number is only one piece of the puzzle. Check the amperage, number of poles, voltage, AIC rating, breaker type, mounting configuration, and physical size against the equipment requirements. The NC36600 was built to last in the systems it was designed for, but getting the right fit starts with matching the specifications.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• The product details provided didn't include specific certification, listing, or material-compliance information. Because those requirements can vary from one installation to another, don't assume them.
• Check the breaker markings and the requirements of the equipment where it will be installed to confirm any required certifications, listings, or compliance standards.

Where It Works Best

• The NC36600 makes sense for existing I-Line electrical equipment that requires a 600A, 3-pole, Type NC plug-in breaker with matching interrupting ratings. This can include commercial and industrial electrical distribution systems where an existing breaker needs to be replaced with one that matches the original application.
• For replacement work, compare the NC36600 directly with the breaker being removed and the equipment specifications. Before installation, confirm that the 600A rating, three poles, Type NC, I-Line plug-in mounting, voltage, AIC rating, and physical dimensions match.
