Product FAQs

8 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the Siemens B260H breaker?

The B260H is a bolt-on miniature circuit breaker designed specifically for installation in Siemens P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 series commercial panelboards.

What frame family does the Siemens B260H belong to?

This breaker is part of the Siemens BLH series. The "H" in the catalog number signifies its higher 22 kA interrupting capacity compared to the standard 10 kA BL series.

Can the B260H be used to replace a standard Siemens B260 breaker?

Yes, the B260H shares the same physical footprint and bolt-on mounting style as the standard B260. Upgrading to the B260H provides a 22 kA interrupting capacity for applications requiring higher fault current protection.

What is the acceptable wire size range for the B260H load lugs?

The load-side lugs on this breaker accept 8 to 4 AWG copper conductors, or 8 to 2 AWG aluminum conductors.

How does the B260H secure into the panelboard?

This unit features a bolt-on mounting configuration. It secures directly to the panelboard bus with bolted connections, providing a robust contact suited for commercial distribution systems.

Does the B260H provide a higher short-circuit rating than standard breakers?

Yes, this model features a 22 kA interrupting rating (AIC) at 120/240VAC. This rating makes it suitable for light industrial and commercial applications where standard 10 kA breakers do not meet the available fault current requirements.

What specific trip functions are included in the B260H?

It utilizes thermal-magnetic trip technology with fixed long-time (L) and instantaneous (I) trip functions. The long-time function protects against sustained overloads, while the instantaneous function clears severe short circuits.

Is the Siemens B260H circuit breaker HACR rated?

Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for protecting heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
