Square D S33659 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What control voltage does the Square D PowerPacT S33659 shunt trip coil need?
The coil is rated 24-30V DC, so your control circuit needs to land in that window. If your remote trip scheme runs on 120V, this is the wrong coil - a 110-130V unit is what you want instead.
2) Can a shunt trip be added to a PowerPacT breaker already installed in a panel, or does the breaker have to be replaced?
It can be added in the field. The PowerPacT M/P/R shunt trip is field installable and mounts inside the circuit breaker enclosure, which is why it's used for retrofits and upgrades of existing PowerPacT panelboard and switchboard installations. No breaker swap needed as long as the frame is an M or P.
3) I need a 120V control circuit shunt trip instead of a 24V one - what should I look at?
The Square D S33659 shunt trip is a 24-30V DC device, so a 120V control scheme needs a different coil. The Eaton PDG2XST130ACDC shunt trip is rated 110-130 Vac/125 Vdc with screw terminals, which matches a line-voltage trip circuit, but it mounts in Eaton Power Defense breakers rather than PowerPacT. If the breaker in the panel is a PowerPacT M or P frame, stay in the Square D PowerPacT accessory range and select the coil voltage that matches your control supply.
4) What is the difference between a shunt trip like the S33659 and an auxiliary switch such as the Eaton AUX1A1BPK?
They do opposite jobs. The Square D S33659 is a shunt trip that trips its PowerPacT M or P frame breaker on command from a remote location, ships with one 2-wire coil and terminal block, and is field installable inside the breaker enclosure. The Eaton AUX1A1BPK is a Series G auxiliary switch for EG- and JG-frame breakers, which reports breaker status to a control or monitoring circuit rather than operating the breaker. If you need remote de-energization, an auxiliary switch will not do it.
5) What comes in the box with the Square D S33659 shunt trip, and what do I still need to supply?
It ships with one 2-wire coil and a terminal block for wiring into the control circuit. You supply the control wiring, the trip initiating device (remote pushbutton, relay contact, fire alarm interface, whatever is driving it), and the 24-30V DC control power source.
6) Is a shunt trip the right accessory if I only need to know whether the breaker is open or closed?
No. A shunt trip de-energizes the circuit on command from a remote location - it acts on the breaker. If you only need status indication back to a control panel or BMS, you want an auxiliary switch instead, such as the Eaton EG-/JG-Frame Series G auxiliary switch for Eaton Series G frames. Pick the accessory by what the signal is doing: shunt trip for outgoing trip commands, auxiliary contact for incoming status.
7) Does the Square D PowerPacT shunt trip meet UL and CSA requirements for a commercial distribution install?
It complies with UL 50 and CSA listing requirements and is ANSI Certified, with UL-CSA listed as its standards reference. That covers the usual submittal line for commercial and industrial distribution work on PowerPacT panelboards and switchboards.
8) Will the Eaton Series G auxiliary switch fit a Square D PowerPacT breaker?
No. The Eaton AUX1A1BPK is built for Eaton EG- and JG-frame Series G breakers. Square D PowerPacT M and P frame breakers take PowerPacT M/P/R range accessories such as the S33659 shunt trip, which mounts inside the PowerPacT breaker enclosure. Breaker accessory pockets are frame specific, so match the accessory to the breaker family you already have in the panelboard or switchboard.
9) Is the Square D S33659 shunt trip mercury free and RoHS compliant for a green-building spec?
Yes on both counts the data covers: construction is mercury free and RoHS status is listed as compliant. Packaging is recycled cardboard with no single-use plastic. It's made in the United States.
10) What is the Square D part number for the 24V PowerPacT shunt trip?
Order by MPN S33659. That is the 24V AC/DC PowerPacT shunt trip for M-, P-, and R-frame breakers, field installable, supplied with a 2-wire coil and terminal block.
