Square D FA36100 - 100A, 600VAC, 3-Pole, Circuit Breaker

The Square D FA36100 is a robust three‑pole circuit breaker designed to deliver dependable overcurrent protection for three‑phase electrical systems. With a 100A rating and a 600VAC maximum, it’s built to handle demanding industrial, commercial, and OEM environments where reliable power distribution matters most. This 3‑pole configuration makes it an ideal fit for panelboards, switchboards, and control panels that serve motors, conveyors, and other heavy equipment.

Why the FA36100 Stands Out

• Three‑phase protection: The 3‑pole design effortlessly supports three‑phase circuits, simplifying wiring and improving protection for motors and other three‑phase loads.
• Broad voltage capacity: Rated up to 600VAC, it accommodates common industrial distribution networks and reduces the need for multiple different protectors in larger installations.
• Compact, versatile form factor: Engineered for panelboards, switchboards, and control panels, it integrates smoothly into varied electrical architectures while maintaining clear, serviceable protection.
• Reliable 100A protection: A precise 100A rating helps guard feeders and critical loads against overloads and unplanned downtime, supporting safer, longer equipment life.
• Industrial-grade fit for OEMs: Its dependable performance makes it well suited for OEM equipment where consistent protection and straightforward integration are essential.

Ideal Applications and Use Cases

• Panelboards and switchboards in manufacturing facilities where three‑phase distribution is standard.
• Motor control centers requiring efficient, unified protection for three‑phase motors and drives.
• OEM equipment enclosures that demand reliable, plug‑and‑play protection with minimal configuration.
• Commercial distribution panels that service multi‑motor or high‑load environments with centralized protection.

Practical Details and Considerations

• Model and rating: FA36100, 100A, 600VAC, 3‑Pole Circuit Breaker.
• Usage mindset: Install in distributed power networks where consistent three‑phase protection helps prevent equipment damage and unplanned outages.
• Maintenance mindset: Regularly inspect for clean bus connections and ensure compatible mounting in standard panels to maintain optimal protection performance.

Choose the Square D FA36100 when you need a proven, three‑phase circuit breaker that aligns with industrial distribution needs and OEM applications. Its combination of 3‑pole configuration, 100A rating, and 600VAC capacity provides a practical, dependable solution for safeguarding motors, drives, and critical loads in demanding environments.
