What is an FR, KR, or LR circuit breaker?

Product Line:
Circuit Breakers

Resolution:
There never were FR, KR, or LR circuit breakers. Catalog numbers such as  FRP36030 or KRL36250, etc. are in fact FAP36030 and KAL36250, etc.
The font used on some labels is easily misread. R is not valid in the second position for any of the F, K, L, M, N, or P frame legacy circuit breakers. The letter that looks like an R is an A.

NOTE:  FAR, KAR, and LAR are valid prefixes. They were for a drawout I-Line panel. They are obsolete and no replacements or parts for them are available.
