Product FAQs

6 answers
What does the "A" in the HJA260404 part number indicate?

The "A" signifies an I-Line style plug-on connection. This allows the breaker to mount directly onto the bus of Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards.

What does the final "4" in the HJA260404 catalog number mean?

The "4" specifies a BC phase connection. This means the 2-pole breaker is factory-configured to connect exclusively to the B and C phases of the I-Line panelboard bus.

Can I install this breaker in a standard QO or Homeline load center?

No. The HJA260404 is a PowerPacT H-frame breaker with an I-Line mounting style. It is only compatible with Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards.

What tool is required to tighten the standard AL150HD lugs on this breaker?

You will need a 3/16 inch Allen wrench to secure the wire binding screws on the AL150HD mechanical lugs.

What are the torque specifications for the AL150HD lugs on the HJA260404?

Using a 3/16 inch Allen wrench, torque the lugs to 50 in-lbs for 14 to 10 AWG wire, and 120 in-lbs for 8 to 3/0 AWG wire. Always verify against the label on the breaker before installation.

Is the HJA260404 a direct replacement for older Square D breakers?

Yes. This PowerPacT H-frame breaker serves as an exact substitute for legacy FA26040BC and FH26040BC circuit breakers in I-Line panels.
