The Square D EDB36030 is a 30A, 600V, 3-pole bolt-on molded‑case circuit breaker designed to deliver dependable branch circuit protection in panelboards and load centers. Built for stability in real-world installations, its bolt‑on mounting creates a rigid, vibration‑resistant bus connection, helping maintain consistent protection even in environments with equipment movement or vibration. Why this breaker stands out
- Bolt-on mounting for a secure, vibration‑resistant bus connection that stays tight over time, reducing the risk of loose connections and nuisance trips.
- Thermal‑magnetic trip unit provides stable, repeatable protection across varying fault currents and temperatures, helping minimize unnecessary downtime and equipment damage.
- 3‑pole design supports three‑phase panelboards and multi‑pole feeders, making it suitable for commercial and light industrial electrical systems as well as specific residential installations that require three‑pole protection.
- 600V rating expands compatibility with modern electrical infrastructure and equipment, offering a robust option for higher‑voltage branch circuits.
- 30A nominal rating precisely protects branch circuits without over‑tripping, enabling reliable circuit segmentation in panels and load centers.
- Compatible with matching OEM load centers and panelboards, simplifying upgrades or replacements without extensive panel rewiring.
- Specifically intended for branch circuit overcurrent and short‑circuit protection, contributing to safety, uptime, and equipment longevity.
- Manufactured by Square D and offered under the EDB36030 part number, ensuring alignment with established electrical standards and OEM specifications. Ideal applications and use cases
- Ideal for three‑phase commercial spaces, light industrial installations, and residential projects that require three‑pole protection in a compact, bolt‑on format.
- Great choice when upgrading existing Square D panels or installing new panelboards that specify bolt‑on molded‑case breakers for superior bus stability.
- Useful in distribution setups where dependable protection across multiple hot lines is critical to preventing cascading faults and equipment damage. Practical considerations for installation and operation
- Ensure your panelboard or load center is designed to accept bolt‑on breakers in the EDB family, and that a 3‑pole configuration matches your distribution needs.
- The bolt‑on design is intended to deliver a secure connection; verify torque and seating during installation per manufacturer guidelines to maintain optimal protection performance.
- As a 600V device, it is suitable for higher‑voltage circuits typical in commercial and light industrial environments, aiding in streamlined procurement for mixed‑use electrical rooms. With its rugged bolt‑on construction, precise thermal‑magnetic protection, and OEM‑level compatibility, the Square D EDB36030 delivers reliable, long‑term branch circuit protection for a wide range of panelboards and load centers. For electricians seeking a proven, three‑pole solution that combines secure mounting with predictable protection, this breaker from AmpState is engineered to perform when it matters most.
