Schneider Electric HDA36050 Molded Case Circuit Breaker

Schneider Electric’s PowerPact HDA36050 molded‑case circuit breaker provides 50 A, 3‑pole protection for 600 V systems, combining a thermal‑magnetic trip with an interrupt rating of 14 kA at 600 V AC. Designed for I‑Line mounting in panelboards and switchboards, it uses line‑side I‑Line connections and load‑side lugs, supports copper or aluminum conductors from AWG 14 to AWG 3/0, and carries an 80% continuous current rating, with a recommended torque of 44.25 in‑lb for secure terminations. The compact enclosure measures up to 9.73 inches high, 4.48 inches wide, and 4.8 inches deep, designed for straightforward installation in standard electrical spaces, and its line and load terminations tolerate the specified conductor range. Voltage ratings are 600 VAC and 250 VDC, and the device belongs to the PowerPact H frame; interrupt ratings by voltage include 25 kA at 240 V, 18 kA at 480 V, and 14 kA at 600 V, with a magnetic hold current of 400 A and magnetic trip current of 850 A.
