FAP34035 - 35 Amp Circuit Breaker

FAP34035 - 35 Amp Circuit Breaker

This high-quality molded-case circuit breaker delivers dependable protection and long-term value for industrial and commercial electrical systems. With a full 35 Amp rating and a 480 V capacity, the FAP34035 is designed by a trusted manufacturer to guard your distribution circuits against overloads and short-circuit risks—giving you peace of mind and improved system performance. Its thermal-magnetic trip mechanism ensures accurate operation under varying load conditions, and the generous interrupting capacity supports demanding applications where reliability truly matters. Whether you’re specifying components for a manufacturing line, upgrading a commercial panel, or maintaining critical infrastructure, this breaker stands ready to work efficiently, safely and sustainably.

Key Features & Benefits

• High interrupting capacity: Rated for up to approx. 18 kA at 480 V (and higher at 240 V) so it can handle severe fault conditions without sacrificing protection.
• Thermal-magnetic protection: Combines thermal (overload) and magnetic (short circuit) trip functions to respond accurately and protect your equipment from both steady over-currents and sudden spikes.
• Durable construction: Built with quality materials and designed for use in challenging environments, this breaker will stand up to the rigours of industrial use.
• Straightforward installation: Designed with lug or bolt-on connections (depending on configuration), making it easier for electricians to install or replace with minimal fuss.
• Brand pedigree & trust: Produced by a globally recognised manufacturer (under the Square D / Schneider Electric line) so you’re buying genuine quality from the ground up.
