Designed for versatile power distribution, the Eaton BAB1060 is a 60A, single-pole miniature circuit breaker. It utilizes fixed thermal and magnetic trip elements to safeguard commercial and industrial electrical systems. Featuring a secure bolt-on mounting style, it fits into Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards. It also offers backward compatibility for older Westinghouse and Bryant panels, replacing QNBL units. With a 10 kAIC capacity at 120/240V, this HACR-rated breaker is UL 489 listed.
The BAB1060 is a bolt-on breaker designed for use in Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards, such as the PRL1a and PRL2a. It is also backwards compatible with legacy Westinghouse and Bryant panelboards that accept BAB frame breakers.
Can this breaker replace older Westinghouse BAB breakers?
Yes. Eaton acquired Westinghouse's distribution equipment business, so the Eaton BAB1060 is a direct, exact replacement for legacy Westinghouse BAB1060 breakers.
Is the BAB1060 HACR rated?
Yes. Eaton BAB breakers from 15A to 100A are HACR (Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration) rated, making this 60A breaker suitable for HVAC equipment protection.
Can the BAB1060 be used in DC applications?
Yes. In addition to its standard 120/240VAC rating, the BAB1060 is rated for DC applications. It provides a 5kAIC interrupting rating at 24VDC and 48VDC.
Are there higher interrupting rating versions of the 60A BAB breaker?
Yes. The standard BAB1060 has a 10kAIC rating. If your application requires a higher interrupting capacity, the QBHW1060 offers 22kAIC, and the HBAX1060 offers 42kAIC in the same physical footprint.
Does the BAB1060 require a separate mounting hardware kit?
No. As a bolt-on breaker, the BAB1060 mounts directly to the busbar in compatible Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards using its integrated mounting screw. No separate hardware kit is required.
Can I use the BAB1060 in a standard residential load center?
No. The BAB1060 is a bolt-on breaker designed for commercial and industrial panelboards. It is not compatible with standard residential plug-on load centers, such as the Eaton BR or CH series.
Does the BAB1060 include ground fault or arc fault protection?
No. The BAB1060 is a standard thermal-magnetic breaker providing overload and short-circuit protection. It does not include GFCI or AFCI protection.
Can the BAB1060 be used in 277/480V panelboards?
No. The BAB1060 is rated for a maximum of 120/240VAC. For 277/480V commercial applications, you must use a breaker rated for that voltage, such as the Eaton GHB series.

We placed our first order with superbreakers.com recently for a breaker we weren't able to acquire locally. I ordered the breaker way ahead of time because I've had issues with shipping for products purchased online in the past. The estimate for the item when I initially ordered was 3 days. Without adding an expedited shipping options, the breaker arrived the next day. We installed it this week, and so far so good. In my opinion, they sell quality parts and have excellent turn around time. Very impressed.
