Designed for maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects, this 2-pole unit delivers dependable disconnection across both hot legs, helping to keep industrial and commercial electrical systems safe and compliant. Key specifications and reference guidance\n- Amperage: 70A\n- Poles: 2-Pole\n- Voltage: 480V\n- Part number: KCL24070\n- Best compatibility reference: the part number itself\n- Applications: maintenance, retrofit, and replacement where exact specifications are required\nNotes: Confirm fit and ratings before ordering. The part number is the best reference for compatibility. Why this breaker stands out for industrial and commercial use\n- Dual-pole protection in 480V systems: The 2-pole design ensures both hot lines trip together, providing robust protection for motors, feeders, and equipment fed from 480V circuits.\n- Precise compatibility for retrofits: When upgrading or replacing aging breakers in 480V panels, KCL24070 matches the exact specifications required by many Square D installations, reducing guesswork during replacements.\n- 70A capacity tuned for demanding loads: Ideal for circuits that drive sizable equipment or motors where a higher current rating is necessary without compromising protection.\n- Maintenance and retrofit ready: A straightforward substitute for legacy breakers that share the same form factor and rating, making panel modernization smoother and faster. Ideal use scenarios\n- Replacing failed or aging 480V two-pole breakers in industrial panels, manufacturing lines, or HVAC and material-handling equipment.\n- Retrofit projects where existing equipment is upgraded to meet newer safety or efficiency standards while keeping the same voltage and current requirements.\n- System upgrades in commercial facilities with 480V distribution that require reliable, code-consistent overcurrent protection. Installation and practical considerations\n- Before ordering, verify that the panel and bus compatibility align with the KCL24070 by cross-referencing the part number.\n- Follow standard electrical safety practices: shut off power, use appropriate PPE, and adhere to local electrical codes during installation.\n- If you’re replacing an older unit, compare not just the amperage and voltage, but also the mounting and trip characteristics to ensure a seamless, code-compliant swap. With its 70A, 2-pole, 480V specification and a focus on precise compatibility, the Square D KCL24070 is a reliable choice for engineers and electricians looking to maintain, retrofit, or replace critical protection in high-voltage systems.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Square D","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46426361757858,"sku":"KCL24070","price":2010.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/8094\/6850\/files\/square-d-kcl24070-circuit-breaker-70a-2-pole-480v-178.webp?v=1789563671","url":"https:\/\/www.ampstate.com\/products\/square-d-kcl24070-circuit-breaker","provider":"Ampstate Electric Corporation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
