BJA36035 - 35Amp Circuit Breaker

BJA36035 - 35Amp Circuit Breaker

The Schneider Electric BJA36035 PowerPacT B circuit breaker is a 35A, 3-pole thermal-magnetic circuit breaker designed for you to use in compatible I-Line distribution systems. You can find this commonly in commercial and industrial electrical installations, it provides overload and short-circuit protection for equipment, feeders, and power distribution circuits where a 35-amp breaker is specified.

What makes the BJA36035 a practical choice is its combination of compact size and high interrupting capability. Dual-break rotating contacts help you reduce peak current during fault conditions, while the built-in push-to-trip button makes testing and inspection straightforward. The breaker uses an ABC phase connection with I-Line line-side termination and mechanical load-side lugs, allowing it to fit properly in compatible Schneider Electric distribution equipment. Rated for interrupting capacities up to 100kA at 240VAC and 25kA at 600Y/347VAC, the BJA36035 is frequently used in panelboards, switchboards, HVAC equipment, motor control systems, and other power distribution applications. It also accepts compatible auxiliary switches, alarm switches, and voltage release accessories when additional functionality is needed. Like other PowerPacT B-frame breakers, it was built for long service life when properly installed and maintained.
