Engineered for dependable performance, the Siemens B260 is a 60A, two-pole bolt-on circuit breaker suitable for various commercial environments. It delivers standard 10kAIC interrupting capacity at 120/240VAC to safeguard branch circuits against damaging overcurrents. This BL-frame breaker is fully compatible with Siemens P1 through P5 panelboards. It comes equipped with Insta-Wire connections for efficient installation and carries a HACR rating for use with heating and cooling equipment.
Can I use the Siemens B260 in a standard residential load center?
No. The B260 is a bolt-on circuit breaker designed specifically for commercial and industrial panelboards, including the Siemens P1 through P5 series. Standard residential load centers typically require plug-on breakers, such as the Siemens QP or QT series.
Is the Siemens B260 a direct replacement for older I-T-E B260 breakers?
Yes. Siemens acquired I-T-E and continues to produce the BL series to the same physical and electrical specifications. The Siemens B260 directly replaces an original I-T-E B260 or BL260 two-pole bolt-on breaker.
Does the Siemens B260 carry an HACR rating?
Yes, this BL-frame breaker is HACR rated. It is officially certified by UL for safe operation with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment branch circuits.
What is the benefit of the Insta-Wire connectors on the B260?
The Siemens B260 comes equipped with Insta-Wire technology, meaning the terminal screws are shipped fully backed out. This allows electricians to immediately insert the stripped conductors and torque them down, significantly speeding up panelboard installations.
