FGA34050 - 50Amp Circuit Breaker

FGA34050 - 50Amp Circuit Breaker

Finding the right replacement for your breaker comes down to matching the details that matter: frame, amperage, poles, connection, dimensions, voltage, and interrupting rating. The FGA34050 circuit breaker is a 50-amp, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker featuring an FGA I-Line frame, plug-in configuration, and PowerPact thermal-magnetic protection. The catalog number is a useful starting point, but checking the complete electrical and mechanical requirements helps ensure proper form, fit, and function. When the equipment calls for this exact FGA configuration, the FGA34050 provides the specified circuit-protection characteristics in a product that is built to last.

Key Features and Benefits

• 50A current rating: Intended for compatible circuits and equipment requiring a 50-amp breaker.
• 3-pole configuration: Provides three-pole circuit protection where specified.
• FGA I-Line frame: An important identification point when matching a breaker to existing I-Line equipment.
• Plug-in configuration: Designed for equipment that accepts the corresponding FGA I-Line plug-in arrangement.
• Thermal-magnetic protection: Combines thermal and magnetic trip characteristics for circuit protection.
• Replacement-focused specifications: Useful for maintaining existing equipment where the original breaker's electrical ratings, frame, connection, and dimensions must match.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The available specifications for the FGA34050 do not include specific UL, CSA, RoHS, REACH, or other certification or material-compliance information. These designations should not be inferred from the product family, type, or part number. When an application requires a particular certification or compliance designation, confirm it using the markings on the breaker and applicable authoritative product documentation.

Where It Works Best

The FGA34050 50A 3-pole circuit breaker is best suited for compatible legacy electrical distribution equipment designed for an FGA I-Line frame with a plug-in breaker configuration. This makes sense for maintenance and replacement situations where the goal is to retain the required form, fit, electrical ratings, and circuit-protection function.
