HGL36025 - 25 Amp Circuit Breaker

HGL36025 - 25 Amp Circuit Breaker

Discover a dependable solution for electrical protection with the PowerPacT HGL36025 circuit breaker. Engineered for commercial and industrial systems, this 25 Amp, 3-pole breaker delivers high-performance fault interruption—18 kA at 600 V AC—and uses advanced thermal-magnetic trip technology for both overload and short-circuit protection. Its design includes rotating dual-break contacts to reduce peak current during faults, and a semi-transparent front cover for visual inspection, giving you peace of mind and efficient maintenance. With field-installable accessories and snap-in terminals to switch between busbar or lug options, you gain flexibility while minimizing inventory complexity. Plus, the “Green Premium™” label signals full compliance with RoHS and REACH standards—so you’re covered not just in performance but in sustainability too. Whether you’re specifying new installations or upgrading existing gear, the HGL36025 brings reliable operational safety and long service-life in demanding environments.

Key Features and Benefits

• Thermal-magnetic sensing: Protects against sustained overloads and sudden short-circuit events by combining a thermal trip for long-term overcurrent and a magnetic trip for high-fault currents.
• Front-facing semi-transparent cover: Enables quick visual inspection of the contacts without removing the unit—ideal for minimizing downtime and improving safety checks.
• Field-installable accessories: Offers on-site flexibility (such as auxiliary contacts, shunt trips, or alarms) so you can adapt the breaker to changing system requirements without stocking multiple variants.
• Dual-break rotating contacts: Reduces peak current when a fault event occurs, which helps protect downstream equipment, lowers stress on the breaker, and enhances longevity.
• Snap-in terminals: Makes conversion between busbar and lug configurations fast and tool-efficient—great for OEMs or retrofit applications where layout may change.
• Environmental compliance (Green Premium™): Meets stringent restrictions such as RoHS and REACh, demonstrating that this breaker supports both regulatory needs and eco-conscious purchasing.

Where It Works Best

• The PowerPacT HGL36025 is well-suited for commercial buildings, industrial plants, and institutional facilities where reliable power distribution and system protection are critical. If you’re upgrading an older panel and require fault-current interruption up to 18 kA, or you’re designing a new distribution system with 25 A branch circuits and opportunities for future adaptability, this breaker fits the bill. When downtime is costly and safety can’t be compromised, this breaker delivers performance you can count on. It works great in applications such as HVAC systems, motor control centers, manufacturing line distributions, and large-scale building services.
