FY14020A - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

FY14020A - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

Introducing the 20-amp single-pole breaker from the renowned PowerPacT B series. This unit provides dependable circuit protection for your electrical system with a combination of smart design and practical performance. With its thermal-magnetic trip mechanism, it responds quickly during short-circuit events and steadily when the load simply runs too long. Its plug-in I-Line format simplifies installation, especially when you’re looking for an efficient, space-saving upgrade and don’t want to compromise on safety or durability.

Key Features and Benefits

• Thermal-magnetic trip technology: Instantly handles intense short-circuit faults with the magnetic element, while the thermal element handles extended overloads for reliable protection.
• High interrupting capacity: Rated at 18 kA at 480Y/277 V AC in an I-Line configuration for demanding environments.
• I-Line mounting: Easily plugs into compatible bus-bar systems, reducing installation time and improving flexibility in panel layouts.
• Quality construction: Built with premium materials and designed to sustain frequent operations and long service life in residential, commercial, or light-industrial settings.
