Product FAQs

7 answers
How many panel spaces does the HOM260 require?

This is a 2-pole, standard format breaker that requires two 1-inch spaces (2 inches total) in a Square D Homeline load center.

Can I install this breaker in a Square D QO or other manufacturer's panel?

No. The HOM260 is physically designed and UL listed exclusively for Square D Homeline load centers. It cannot be used in QO panels or load centers from other brands.

Is the HOM260 suitable for HVAC and refrigeration equipment?

Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is certified for use with motorized heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires a HACR-rated overcurrent protection device.

What is the required tightening torque for the wire terminals on this breaker?

The box lug terminals on the HOM260 require a tightening torque of 40.7 lb-in (pound-inches) when securing the 8 to 2 AWG aluminum or copper conductors.

What types of loads or applications is a 60A, 2-pole Homeline breaker typically used for?

The HOM260 is commonly used as a feeder breaker for a subpanel, or to supply 240V power to high-demand applications like large electric heating systems, central air conditioning units, and EV chargers.

What is the difference between the HOM260 and the HOM260CP?

Both catalog numbers represent the exact same 60A, 2-pole circuit breaker. The CP suffix simply indicates that the product comes in commercial packaging, such as a clamshell or blister pack, for retail display.

Does this breaker provide ground-fault or arc-fault protection?

No, this is a standard thermal-magnetic breaker. It does not provide GFCI or AFCI protection. If your application requires ground-fault protection, you will need a dedicated GFCI circuit breaker instead.
