Schneider Electric FAL22080 Two-Pole Circuit Breaker

Square D by Schneider Electric FAL22080 is a two‑pole molded‑case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 80 A at 240 V AC, designed for use in commercial and industrial distribution panels. It features a thermal‑magnetic trip mechanism for reliable overcurrent protection and carries a 10 kA interrupting capacity (AIC) at 240 V, with a 250 V DC rating suitable for certain DC applications. This 2‑pole device provides a common trip for coordinated shutdown of both conductors in a 240 V circuit and is compatible with Square D/FAL frame enclosures and standard MCCB terminal lugs. Typical applications include protecting feeders and branch circuits in electrical distribution systems within industrial facilities, manufacturing spaces, and commercial buildings where robust 240 V protection is required. The FAL22080 variant represents the legacy FAL series from Schneider Electric, commonly encountered in retrofit projects or installations specifying the F‑frame family of molded‑case breakers.
