JDM36175 - 175Amp Circuit Breaker

JDM36175 - 175Amp Circuit Breaker

At 175 amps, the JDM36175 has a fairly specific set of electrical and connection details to check against the breaker you're replacing. The JDM36175 is built to last, and its clearly defined ratings, trip characteristics, connections, and dimensions provide practical information to determine whether it has the form, fit, and function your installation calls for.

Key Features and Benefits

• 175A, three-pole J-Frame design: Gives you three important compatibility points to check right away.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: Provides the specified overload and short-circuit protection.
• 1750A magnetic tripping current: Paired with an 875A magnetic hold current.
• Line lugs and load terminal nuts: A connection arrangement worth confirming against the existing installation.
• 4 AWG–4/0 AWG conductor range: AL175JD terminal specifications cover both aluminum and copper conductors within this range.
• 80% continuous current rating: Clearly documented for application and replacement checks.
• Integral push-to-trip button: Provides a manual means of tripping the circuit breaker.

Where It Works Best

The JDM36175 is suited to compatible distribution equipment calling for a 175A, three-pole J-Frame breaker with thermal-magnetic protection. The line-lug/load-terminal-nut arrangement makes connection type an especially useful checkpoint when identifying the correct part for an existing system.
