Schneider Electric NC0215 Stab-Lok Circuit Breaker 15A 2 Pole 120/240VAC 10kA Plug-In Mount

Description

Features

• The Schneider Electric NC0215 (often branded under the Federal Pioneer name) is a specialized "Spacesaver" or "wafer" circuit breaker. While it is a 2-pole breaker, it is only 1-inch wide. This unique design allows Canadian homeowners and electricians to squeeze a 240V circuit into a single standard 1-inch slot in a Stab-lok panelboard, effectively doubling the circuit capacity of the panel.
• This breaker is rated for 15 Amps. Because it occupies two bus stabs but maintains a slim profile, it is typically used for light-duty 240V loads or two separate 120V circuits that share a neutral (multi-wire branch circuits). Common applications in Canada include small baseboard heaters, dedicated workshop circuits, or powering multi-outlet bedroom runs where panel space is at a premium.
• The NC0215 utilizes standard thermal-magnetic trip technology. The thermal element protects against long-term overloads (like plugging in too many devices), while the magnetic element provides near-instantaneous tripping during a short circuit. This dual-action protection ensures your wiring is protected from overheating and catastrophic electrical faults.
• A hallmark of the Schneider/Federal Pioneer line is the color-coded handle. For 15-Amp breakers like the NC0215, the handles are typically Blue. This allows for "at-a-glance" auditing of a panel; an electrician can instantly see that a circuit is a 15-amp line without having to pull the deadfront or read tiny embossed text on the breaker body.
• This is a plug-on (Stab-lok ) breaker. It features the classic "U" shaped mounting jaw that snaps onto the busbar of a Federal Pioneer panel. Note that this breaker is proprietary to the Stab-lok system and is not compatible with Square D, Eaton, or Siemens panels. It is strictly a replacement or expansion part for the millions of Federal Pioneer panels still in service across Canada.
