Schneider Electric FAL22020 Circuit Breaker

Square D by Schneider Electric FAL22020 is a two‑pole molded‑case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 240 V and 20 A, part of the FAL family that provides reliable overcurrent protection for distribution panels and feeders in commercial and light industrial electrical systems. This thermal‑magnetic device combines a long‑time thermal trip with an instantaneous magnetic trip to interrupt current on overloads and short circuits, and it uses standard line and load terminations compatible with Square D enclosures, simplifying wiring and panel integration. The FAL22020 is designed to protect two conductors in 240 V circuits, making it suitable for feeders for lighting, receptacles, or small equipment, and it aligns with the typical Square D fault‑protection approach used across many OEM panels and field installations. When selecting a replacement, verify the exact panel compatibility and terminal configuration within the Square D ecosystem to ensure a proper fit, and reference the catalog number FAL22020 to confirm you are choosing the correct two‑pole, 20 A, 240 V MCCB for your installation.
