Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for thermal-magnetic circuit breakers is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Current Rating (Amps): Must match exactly at 13A
• Breaker Type: Must be thermal-magnetic
• Number of Poles: Must be 3-pole configuration
• Actuator Type: Must be lever-operated
• Mounting Type: Must be DIN rail compatible

The substitute part Phoenix Contact 1020025 satisfies all mandatory electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. While the voltage rating differs (277V AC versus 480V AC), this represents a distinct product variant within the same thermal-magnetic breaker family, suitable for applications operating at the lower voltage specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 1020025 is an active product with current manufacturing status and ROHS3 compliance certification, providing supply chain continuity for the obsolete 0902386. Both components share identical current rating, pole configuration, actuator mechanism, and mounting interface. Selection between these parts depends on the system voltage requirement: the 0902386 operates at 480V AC, while the 1020025 is specified for 277V AC applications. Verify the target circuit voltage before component selection to ensure proper operational parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 1020025 directly replace the 0902386 in all applications?

A: Direct replacement is possible only in circuits operating at 277V AC. The 0902386 is rated for 480V AC operation. Voltage mismatch will result in improper breaker performance and potential safety hazards.

Q: What makes these parts substitutable despite different voltage ratings?

A: Both components share identical current rating (13A), thermal-magnetic protection mechanism, 3-pole configuration, lever actuation, and DIN rail mounting. These parameters define functional equivalence within their respective voltage classes.

Q: Why is the 0902386 listed as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The 1020025 represents the active equivalent within Phoenix Contact's current product portfolio.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The 0902386 is specified with standard packaging, while the 1020025 is supplied in box packaging. This does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: The 0902386 carries RoHS Compliant certification. The 1020025 meets the more recent ROHS3 Compliant standard. Both are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8536.20.0040.
