Schneider Electric NC0250 Stab-Lok Circuit Breaker 50A 2 Pole 120/240VAC 10kA Plug-In Mount

Description

Features

• Rated at 50 Amps, this double-pole breaker provides the high-capacity 240V power required for demanding residential loads like electric ranges, large water heaters, and Level 2 EV charging stations. Its thermal-magnetic trip mechanism ensures your home's internal wiring is protected against both slow-acting overloads and sudden, dangerous short circuits.
• The NC0250 features the classic 1-inch per pole "plug-on" format (2 inches total width) specifically engineered for the legacy Square D Network series panels. While it shares a physical profile with the modern Homeline (CHOM) series, this specific NC-prefix unit is the correct maintenance and replacement part for existing Canadian Network-type installations, ensuring a secure and code-compliant mechanical fit.
• Designed for standard 120/240V AC residential service, this breaker features a 10,000 AIC (Amps Interrupting Capacity) rating, providing a high level of safety during a fault event. The rugged construction is built to withstand thousands of operation cycles, offering a "set-it-and-forget-it" solution for homeowners and contractors managing older electrical infrastructures.
• Equipped with robust pressure plate lugs, the NC0250 is designed to securely land #8 AWG copper or aluminum conductors, which are standard for 50-Amp branch circuits. This ensures a low-resistance connection that prevents overheating at the terminal point, reducing the risk of nuisance tripping or damage to the breaker bus bar.
• This unit is fully CSA Certified, meeting the rigorous safety requirements of the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC). By using an authentic Schneider Square D breaker instead of a generic third-party alternative, you maintain the UL/CSA listing of your entire electrical panel, which is a critical requirement for provincial electrical inspections and home insurance compliance.
