KAL36175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

KAL36175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're replacing a breaker in existing electrical equipment, matching the details matters. The KAL36175 is a 175-amp, 3-pole thermal-magnetic molded-case circuit breaker for compatible systems that require a Type KAL breaker with the same electrical and physical characteristics. For facilities maintaining legacy electrical systems, the KAL36175 is a practical choice when the application requires its specific amperage, pole configuration, dimensions, and interrupting ratings.

Key Features and Benefits

• 175-amp rating – Matches applications that specifically require a 175A molded case circuit breaker.
• 3-pole configuration – Designed for compatible three-pole electrical systems.
• Thermal magnetic trip – Uses a thermal magnetic trip mechanism consistent with the specified KAL breaker configuration.
• Type KAL construction – Suited to compatible equipment where the KAL form, fit, and electrical specifications are required.
• Line and load lugs included – Provides the specified connection arrangement for the breaker.
• 60 Hz, 40°C rating – Clearly identified operating specifications help technicians determine whether the breaker is suitable for the intended application.

Material Compliance and Certifications

Specific material-compliance information and certification listings were not provided in the available specifications for the KAL36175. Rather than assume certifications or regulatory listings that have not been documented, any required compliance status should be verified from the breaker's labeling and supporting product documentation. This is especially important when a particular listing or material requirement is necessary for the installation.

Where It Works Best

The KAL36175 175A circuit breaker is best suited for compatible legacy electrical equipment where the existing application requires a Type KAL, 3-pole thermal-magnetic molded-case breaker with matching physical and electrical specifications. It can be considered for maintenance and functional replacement applications where maintaining the correct form, fit, amperage, pole count, dimensions, and interrupting capacity is essential.
