FC3070 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker Description
FC3070 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker
When you're replacing a molded case circuit breaker, matching the original specifications is usually more important than simply choosing the correct amp rating. A compatible replacement should match the catalog number, breaker type, frame, amperage, pole configuration, voltage rating, interrupting capacity, dimensions, and terminal configuration. Taking the time to verify each of these details helps ensure the breaker fits properly and performs as intended within the existing electrical system.
Key Features and Benefits
- 70 Amp continuous current rating for compatible branch and feeder circuit applications
- Three-pole configuration designed for three-phase electrical systems
- Type FC molded case circuit breaker
- Thermal-magnetic trip unit helps protect against both overloads and short-circuit faults
- Non-interchangeable trip unit maintains the factory-configured protection settings
- Rated for operation in ambient temperatures up to 40°C
- Includes load terminals for installation
- Intended as a form, fit, and functional replacement when the original breaker specifications match
- Built to last when properly installed and maintained according to applicable electrical codes
