Engineered for industrial environments, this 60-amp MCCB utilizes fixed thermal-magnetic trip technology for reliable long-time and instantaneous protection. The unit-mount configuration fastens securely into standard Square D switchboards. Facilities looking to modernize can transition to the newer BGL16060. Boasting a 65kA interrupting rating at 240VAC, it handles substantial short-circuit events while maintaining a strict HACR rating.

Product FAQs
6 answers
Is the Square D FHL16060 still in active production?
The FHL16060 is a legacy F-frame circuit breaker. Facilities looking to modernize or replace this unit can transition to the newer PowerPact B-frame series, such as the BGL16060, which offers similar ratings in a more compact footprint.
How is the FHL16060 circuit breaker mounted?
This is a unit mount, or feed-thru, circuit breaker. It bolts directly to a mounting plate or backpan in standard Square D enclosures, switchboards, and panelboards rather than plugging into a busbar.
Can the FHL16060 be used in DC electrical systems?
Yes, this breaker is rated for DC applications. It provides a 10kA interrupting capacity at 125VDC, making it suitable for specific DC control circuits and industrial environments.
What wire sizes are compatible with the lugs on this 60A breaker?
The factory lugs accept 14 to 1/0 AWG copper wire or 12 to 1/0 AWG aluminum wire. Ensure all connections are properly torqued to the manufacturer specifications during installation.
What equipment is compatible with the FHL16060?
This 1-pole breaker is designed for use in compatible Square D enclosures, switchboards, and panelboards that accept legacy F-frame unit mount breakers.
What type of trip mechanism does this breaker use?
It utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. This provides reliable long-time thermal protection against overloads and instantaneous magnetic protection against short circuits.
