Schneider Electric FA22030BC I Line Circuit Breaker

Schneider Electric's Square D FA22030BC is a 240V, 30A, 2-pole I-Line molded‑case circuit breaker from the FA family, designed for installation in I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It uses a line-side I-Line connection with a BC-phase configuration and load-side lugs, and accepts copper or aluminum conductors from #14 through #4 AWG. This thermal-magnetic device carries a 10 kA interrupting rating at 240V and is specified for operation in ambient temperatures up to 40°C, with an 80% rating for continuous duty. As a two-pole I-Line breaker, it protects both hot legs of a 240V circuit, making it suitable for branch protection in commercial or industrial distribution where compact size and compatibility with Schneider Electric’s I-Line equipment are important. Typical applications include protecting feeders or branch circuits in 240V commercial installations such as lighting, receptacle circuits, or small-motor loads that require a 2-pole 240V breaker.
