  • Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) Stab-Lok Breakers and Panelboards
    Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) Stab-Lok Breakers and Panelboards HSB, part of Munich Re, is a What is the best course of action when discovered? technology-driven company built on a foundation of specialty insurance, engineering and technology, all Federal Pacific Electric Company (FPE) manufactured many electrical products working together to drive innovation while in business including a panelboard and breaker line called Stab-Lok. The in a modern world. Stab-Lok products are no longer manufactured, but millions had been installed in residential and commercial buildings between 1950 and 1985. The purpose of the breaker is to protect the building from fire in the event of an electrical circuit abnormality. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) investigated many reports in 1982 of Stab-Lok breakers failing to trip as required by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) testing standards. The CPSC did not have the funding to further investigate this problem or arrive at a definitive conclusion. Tests by the CPSC and independent consulting engineers concluded that certain Stab-Lok breakers do not trip according to UL requirements and in some cases, can jam in the “on” position. In addition, overheating problems have been found within the panelboard internal bus connections. Unfortunately, this information surfaced after many Stab-Lokinstallations were completed and had been in service for years. In 2002, a New Jersey class-action lawsuit decided that the manufacturer of the Stab-Lok breakers committed fraud over many years in issuing UL labels to products they knew did not meet the UL testing requirements. HSB Page 2/2 Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) Stab-Lok Breakers and Panelboards The National Electrical Code requires that all installed products must be listed and labeled by an independent testing agency to be acceptable for the intended use.

  • Federal Pacific Electric Circuit Breaker Replacement Alert
    LOSS PREVENTION SAFETY TOPICS Federal Pacific Electric Circuit Breaker Replacement Alert Federal Pacific Electric Company manufactured Stab-Lok circuit breakers from the 1950’s to the 1980’s. The breakers were produced for both commercial and residential applications. Issues As many as one million FPE with the breakers surfaced in 1980 with the FPE two-pole stab-lok Stab-Lok breakers currently circuit breaker that was found to jam while attempting to trip in an in use may fail to provide overcurrent scenario. proper fire protection. The primary issue with these type of breakers includes failing to trip at 135% and 200% of rated current (1). Additionally, the double pole breakers are found to mechanically jam. This means that a commercial or residential structure with these breaker panels has a probability of not functioning as needed when a circuit is “overloaded”. A comparison may be made to replacing a blown Edison type fuse with a slug or penny, effectively overriding the protection necessary for an electric circuit. Testing of FPE stab-lok circuit breakers was conducted by multiple companies in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s. They included FPE (and its parent company, Reliance Electric), Southwest Research Incorporated, Underwriters Laboratories, Consumer Product Safety Commission and Wright-Malta Corp. (for the CPSC). Only the CPSC/Wright-Malta test results were made public. Despite the CPSC findings that 85% of the double-pole breakers and 39% of the single-pole breakers failed one or more of the UL How To Identify an FPE Breaker test criteria at 200% of rated current (2), a press release was issued A Federal Pacific Electric panel will usually have its name or in 1983 stating that the CPSC was “unable at this time to link these logo on the front cover.

There, gathered about 14's gate, was a curious assortment of individuals, clothed more or less conventionally, but bearing large amounts of photographic equipment, maps and timetables; occasionally, bystanders could detect such phrases as “Lemme see your shot of W-25" or “the over-head’s going up soon” (How can it be overhead if it’s not over head yet? And just what is it, anyway?) which did little to alleviate their curiosity. However, as the gates were thrown open, and the throngs surged aboard number 14, the strange group was soon forgotten in the struggle for seats. Of course, we knew what was going on; we constituted that group, and, safely aboard our “private coach”, were en route to Oshawa, and our second annual jaunt on the electrified Oshawa Railway. The trip to Oshawa was uneventful, save for the periodic expeditions of several members to the Dinette car to examine the etchings of steam locomotives (so they said).
