NJJ232400 - 400Amp Circuit Breaker Description
NJJ232400 - 400Amp Circuit Breaker
When you need to replace a circuit breaker, finding the right match is about more than checking the amperage. Frame type, mounting arrangement, electrical ratings, and physical dimensions all matter. The NJJ232400 400 Amp 2-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker is a thermal-magnetic, molded-case circuit breaker designed and approved for NJJ-frame, 400 Amp, two-pole applications. For electricians and maintenance professionals working with compatible legacy electrical systems, the NJJ232400 helps maintain the original installation's specified form, fit, and function.
Another important detail is its 22kA interrupting rating at 240VAC. This rating indicates the breaker's specified ability to interrupt fault current up to 22,000 amperes at 240 volts AC under applicable rating conditions. Why does that matter? Because you must consider the available fault current at an installation when choosing a replacement. Matching the amperage alone is not enough to establish that a circuit breaker is suitable.
