Product FAQs
6 answers
Can the BGA260801 be used to replace older Square D F-frame circuit breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT B-frame is the designated modern replacement for legacy Square D F-frame breakers. The BGA260801 directly replaces the obsolete FA26080AB, fitting into the same I-Line panelboard space without requiring blank fillers.
What is the phase connection for the BGA260801 I-Line breaker?
This specific 2-pole breaker is configured with an AB phase connection for mounting in Square D I-Line panelboards.
What does the G in the BGA260801 catalog number indicate?
In the PowerPacT B-frame series, the G designates the interrupting rating tier. It indicates a short-circuit current rating of 65kA at 240VAC, 35kA at 480VAC, and 18kA at 600Y/347VAC.
What does the A in the BGA260801 part number signify?
The A indicates that this is an I-Line style breaker designed for plug-in mounting on Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards, as opposed to a unit-mount (lug-to-lug) configuration.
Does the BGA260801 provide common trip functionality?
Yes, as a 2-pole molded case circuit breaker, it features an internal common trip mechanism. If an overcurrent or short circuit occurs on one pole, both poles will trip simultaneously to prevent single-phasing of the connected load.
What type of terminals does the BGA260801 use?
It features an I-Line style plug-in connection on the line side and mechanical lugs on the load side, which accept 14 AWG to 2/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.
