Product FAQs
8 answers
What does the LU suffix mean on the BDL36060LU circuit breaker?
The LU suffix indicates that this PowerPacT B-frame breaker includes a control wire terminal on the ON end (line side) EverLink lugs.
What are the instantaneous trip settings for this 60A thermal-magnetic breaker?
The BDL36060LU features fixed thermal-magnetic trip settings with a short-circuit hold current of 640A and a trip current of 960A.
Can the BDL36060LU be mounted on a DIN rail?
Yes, this unit-mount PowerPacT B-frame breaker can be installed on a standard 35mm DIN rail or mounted directly to a backpan using screws.
Is this breaker suitable for use in I-Line panelboards?
No, the BDL36060LU is a unit-mount (feed-thru) breaker designed for industrial control panels, enclosures, and switchboards. For I-Line panelboards, you need a B-frame breaker with an I-Line mounting bracket, typically denoted by an A suffix in the catalog number.
What is the difference between the BDL36060 and the BDL36060LU?
Both are 60A, 3-pole PowerPacT B-frame breakers with the same electrical ratings. The BDL36060LU specifically includes a control wire terminal on the line side (ON end) lugs, whereas the standard BDL36060 does not.
Is the BDL36060LU rated for continuous operation at 100 percent of its current rating?
No, this breaker has a standard 80 percent continuous current rating. Continuous loads should not exceed 48 amps, which is 80 percent of its 60A nominal rating.
What type of lugs are included with the BDL36060LU?
This breaker comes equipped with EverLink creep-compensating mechanical lugs on both the line and load sides. These lugs maintain constant pressure on the wire to prevent loosening due to thermal cycling, and they accept 14 AWG to 3/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.
What is the rated impulse withstand voltage for the BDL36060LU?
The rated impulse withstand voltage (Uimp) for this PowerPacT B-frame breaker is 8 kV, making it suitable for demanding industrial distribution environments.
