Schneider Electric HGA36030 | 30A 3-Pole PowerPacT H-Frame Circuit Breaker

Main Description:

The Schneider Electric HGA36030 is a dependable PowerPacT H-Frame molded case circuit breaker designed to protect electrical systems from overloads and short-circuit conditions. With a 30A current rating, 3-pole design, and 600VAC operating capability, this breaker is well-suited for commercial and industrial distribution applications. It utilizes a thermal-magnetic trip unit to provide accurate fault response, while its 18kA interrupting capacity ensures robust short-circuit performance. The HGA36030 includes I-Line terminations on the line side and mechanical lugs on the load side, offering simplified installation and serviceability within I-Line panelboards.
