FDE316036ZG | Circuit Breaker | 160A | 3-Pole

Meet the FDE316036ZG, a rugged industrial circuit breaker designed for demanding electrical systems. With 160A capacity and a 3-Pole configuration, it provides coordinated protection across three-phase circuits, helping prevent equipment damage and unplanned downtime.

This unit is ideal for maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects where exact fit and reliable protection matter. The three-pole design ensures simultaneous disconnection of all live conductors, enhancing safety and ensuring comprehensive circuit protection in multi-wire systems.

Key specifications and what they mean for you

• Amperage: 160A — suitable for medium to high-load circuits in industrial environments.
• Poles: 3-Pole — designed for three-phase distribution, providing balanced protection across all phases.

Why this model is the right choice

The part number reference (FDE316036ZG) is the most reliable indicator of compatibility with your panel, bus, and distribution board. When you’re matching breakers to existing equipment, relying on the exact part number minimizes risk and ensures the protective characteristics align with your system’s requirements.

Ideal use cases

• Retrofit projects where a precise match to existing panels is required
• Replacement installations for aging or failed 3-pole feeders
• Routine maintenance in facilities with shared three-phase power systems

Practical guidance for ordering and installation

Before purchasing, confirm fit and ratings with your panel manufacturer or equipment manual. The FDE316036ZG designation serves as the best compatibility reference, ensuring your replacement or retrofit aligns with the intended electrical architecture.

Safety and handling tips

Have a qualified electrician perform installation or replacement. Always isolate power and verify there are no residual voltages before handling the breaker. If you’re unsure about compatibility, refer to your panel documentation and use the exact part number to avoid mismatches.
