Schneider Electric FA36030 Molded Case Circuit Breaker

Schneider Electric FA36030 is a 600 V, 30 A molded‑case circuit breaker in the FA (F‑frame) family, configured as a 3‑pole device for three‑phase protection in electrical distribution systems. As a molded‑case device, it provides thermal‑magnetic overcurrent protection for feeders and branch circuits and is designed for use in Schneider Electric FA‑series panels and switchgear. This model is documented in Schneider Electric’s FA line as FA36030 (with a ground‑fault variant FA36030G also available) and is listed as discontinued as of June 30, 2023, with Schneider Electric indicating recommended replacements in its catalog; for similar specifications the PowerPacT B family is listed as a replacement option (e.g., 30 A, 3‑pole, 600 VAC configurations with up to 14 kA interrupting capacity, including 600Y/347 VAC for some variants). The product is noted as Non‑Stock — Not normally stocked in distribution facilities. When evaluating equivalents, verify the exact voltage rating (600 V), current rating (30 A), pole count (3P), and mounting/compatibility with your panel to ensure proper fit and protective coordination.
