Schneider Electric FA34060 ILine Circuit Breaker

Schneider Electric FA34060 is a 3-pole I-Line molded‑case circuit breaker rated for 480 V AC and 60 A, part of the FA family with I-Line plug‑in mounting. It employs a thermal‑magnetic LI trip and carries an 18 kA interrupting rating at 480 V, making it suitable for protecting 3‑phase feeders in Schneider Electric I‑Line panel systems. The FA34060 uses an FA (F‑frame) design and is intended for plug‑in installation in I‑Line style panelboards, offering straightforward interchange with other FA devices on an I‑Line bus. The I‑Line geometry supports compact, modular protection in industrial distributions; typical uses include upstream protection for motors, heating, or processing loads in commercial/industrial spaces powered by 480 V three‑phase systems. Schneider Electric lists FA34060 as a discontinued part (last commercial date shown as June 30, 2023), with replacement guidance pointing toward the PowerPacT B family for similar 60 A, 3‑pole, 480 V applications (for example 60 A, 3‑pole, 600Y/347 VAC, 14 kA). When selecting a direct replacement, verify the exact suffix, terminal configuration, and mounting compatibility with your panel and bus system to maintain I‑Line interoperability and safe, code‑compliant protection.
