Delivering reliable thermal-magnetic protection, the Square D BGA24060Y1 is a 2-pole, 60A molded case circuit breaker. It is part of the PowerPacT B-Frame series for industrial applications. This breaker mounts into Square D I-Line panelboards and serves as an exact substitute for the discontinued FA24060AB model. It features a phase AB connection (Y1 suffix), delivers a 35 kAIC rating at 480Y/277V, and includes a visual trip indicator.
Does the BGA24060Y1 replace older Square D I-Line circuit breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT B-frame series is the direct replacement for legacy FA and FH frame I-Line circuit breakers, including the discontinued FA24060AB. It maintains the same mounting space requirements for straightforward retrofits in existing panels.
What does the Y1 suffix indicate on the BGA24060Y1 catalog number?
The Y1 suffix designates an AB phase connection for the I-Line plug-on mounting system.
Is this PowerPacT breaker compatible with older QED switchboards?
Yes, Schneider Electric confirms that new PowerPacT I-Line breakers are backward compatible with older I-Line panelboards and switchboard distribution sections, provided the system voltage and interrupting ratings are appropriate.
Can the BGA24060Y1 be reverse fed?
No. I-Line circuit breakers feature isolated plug-on jaws on the line side and mechanical lugs on the load side, making them strictly directional and unsuitable for reverse feeding.
How is the line side connection made during installation?
The breaker utilizes a shrouded I-Line plug-on jaw mechanism on the line side that presses directly onto the panelboard bus assembly, requiring wire terminations only on the load side lugs.
How can I manually test the mechanical operation of the breaker?
The breaker includes an integral push-to-trip button on the front cover, allowing electricians to manually trip the mechanism and verify proper mechanical operation.
