Schneider Electric FA24030BC Molded Case Circuit Breaker

The FA24030BC Molded Case Circuit Breaker from Square D by Schneider Electric is a 30 A, two‑pole device designed for 480 V electrical distribution. Part of the FA I‑Line family, it uses plug‑on mounting and a thermal‑magnetic trip mechanism to provide overcurrent protection for single‑phase, 480 V feeders and equipment. It offers an 18 kA interrupting rating at 480 V (25 kA at 240 V) and is rated at 80% for continuous operation, making it suitable for industrial power distribution in panelboards and switchgear. The breaker features line‑side I‑Line connections and load‑side lugs capable of accommodating 14‑4 AWG aluminum or copper conductors, simplifying wiring and enabling compact installations. With its robust construction for 480 V systems, FA24030BC protects circuits in control panels, machine enclosures, and other industrial assemblies where space efficiency and reliable protection are essential.
