FPE Breaker

[nickelec]

Happy Easter Monday all. Has anyone ever seen these before or replaced?

Im trying to come up with a solution for a building to swap out about 100 of these do to the insurance company.

I can't make out the labels to get a type .

Not even sure I can get a direct replacement to fit in the old frame.

Any thoughts?

FPE gained their bad reputation because of Stablok panels & breakers, not the rest of the product line. Funny thing is the other brand with a equally bad reputation, Zinsco/Sylvania, used FPE where breakers were needed for anything over 225A, and everything over 240V.

You can still buy those breakers from Federal Pioneer in Canada, now part of Schneider. They were never part of the recall issues.

Still no photo of the breaker?
