If there’s any doubt about fit or ratings, consult a licensed electrician to avoid mis-matches or electrical hazards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Square D","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46427223621794,"sku":"FHP16040","price":510.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/8094\/6850\/files\/master_generic_ad06fdd7-931c-4a09-bfbe-d05329579cd6.png?v=1765492978","url":"https:\/\/www.ampstate.com\/products\/square-d-fhp16040-circuit-breaker","provider":"Ampstate Electric Corporation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
