Product FAQs
6 answersWhich Siemens panelboards are compatible with the BF260 circuit breaker?
The BF260 is a bolt-on breaker designed specifically for Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards. Because of its bolt-on mounting configuration, it cannot be installed in standard plug-on load centers.
Is there a plug-on equivalent to the BF260 for residential load centers?
Yes, the Siemens QF260 or QF260A is the plug-on equivalent. It provides the same 60A, 2-pole GFCI protection but is designed to mount in Siemens EQ, ES, PL, and Ultimate load centers.
What is the ground fault trip threshold for the BF260?
This breaker provides Class A personnel protection, meaning the ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is calibrated to trip at a 5mA threshold.
How is the neutral connected on this GFCI breaker?
The BF260 utilizes a pigtail neutral wire. This pigtail must be routed and connected directly to the neutral bus bar in the panelboard for the ground fault detection circuitry to function properly.
What wire gauges are accepted by the terminal lugs?
The lugs on the BF260 accept 8 AWG to 6 AWG copper (Cu) conductors, or 8 AWG to 4 AWG aluminum (Al) conductors.
What type of trip mechanism does the BF260 use?
It uses a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit that provides Long-Time and Instantaneous overcurrent protection, integrated with Ground-Fault protection (LIG).
