The HLA36030YP is a Square D PowerPacT H-frame molded case circuit breaker rated for 30 amps at 600 with 3 poles, designed to protect electrical systems from damage caused by overloads and short circuits in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. With a breaking capacity of 50kA@600V, it can safely interrupt the high fault currents found on large industrial and commercial power systems.
The HLA36030YP uses a thermal-magnetic trip that provides long-time and instantaneous protection. The thermal element responds to sustained overloads, while the magnetic element trips instantly on a short circuit, so the breaker can clear a fault quickly and still tolerate the brief surges that equipment draws at startup. PowerPacT H-frame breakers use dual-break rotating contacts to reduce peak current during a short circuit, and an integral push-to-trip button in the cover lets the breaker be tripped manually for testing.
Mechanically, the HLA36030YP has I-Line terminations on the line side, so it plugs directly onto the bus in I-Line panelboards for easy installation and removal, and it has mechanical lugs on the load side for connecting cables. It has a continuous current rating of 80 percent and an ABC phase connection, which sets which phases of the panelboard bus the three poles connect to. PowerPacT H breakers comply with UL, CSA, NOM, and IEC standards and are CE marked. Because Square D builds this breaker with different ratings and options, it is worth confirming the part number, frame, amp rating, and phase connection against your equipment before ordering. This makes the HLA36030YP a practical choice for electricians and facility teams who need to replace or add an I-Line breaker and keep an existing panelboard or switchboard running.
