Product FAQs

7 answers
What legacy Square D circuit breaker does the BDA24050Y4 replace?

The BDA24050Y4 is part of the PowerPacT B-frame series, which replaces legacy FA-frame breakers such as the FA24050. Note that the "Y4" suffix indicates a factory-configured BC phase connection.

What does the "Y4" suffix indicate on the BDA24050Y4?

In Square D I-Line circuit breakers, the "Y4" suffix designates a factory-configured BC phase connection. This determines which bus bars the breaker will draw power from when installed in an I-Line panelboard.

What type of panelboards are compatible with the BDA24050Y4?

This breaker features an I-Line plug-in mounting style and is designed exclusively for use in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It cannot be used in standard unit-mount enclosures or QO/Homeline load centers.

Is the BDA24050Y4 a current-limiting circuit breaker?

Yes, PowerPacT B-frame breakers feature dual-break rotating contacts that rapidly extinguish fault currents. This current-limiting design reduces peak energy let-through, which lowers enclosure pressure and improves series ratings.

Is the BDA24050Y4 suitable for reverse feeding?

Yes, PowerPacT B-frame circuit breakers are suitable for reverse feed applications. Power can be supplied to either the line or load terminals without affecting the trip characteristics.

Does this breaker include a push-to-trip feature for mechanical testing?

Yes, all PowerPacT B-frame circuit breakers feature an integral push-to-trip button on the cover. This allows you to manually trip the breaker to verify the mechanical operation of the trip mechanism.

Is the BDA24050Y4 rated for HVAC applications?

Yes, this breaker carries an HACR rating, making it suitable for protecting heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment circuits.

    Installed & working

    Ordered this from SuperBreakers when local vendors were quoting me 25%+.

    So I got a refurbished version of this breaker.

    It is installed and working.

    Also, service was great.

    Thank you SuperBreakers!
