Description
Engineered for commercial applications, this 60-amp Sentron series component provides reliable overcurrent protection. The unit features a thermal-magnetic trip mechanism within a compact GB frame design. Installation requires a bolt-on connection into Siemens P1, P2, or P3 panelboards. For modern upgrades, this model is replaced by the 3VA4160-5ED14-0AA0, requiring an xGB/3VA strap kit. Rated for 65kA at 120VAC, it handles demanding fault currents and supports reverse feed configurations.Specifications

Product FAQs
8 answersWhich Siemens panelboards accept the HGB1B060B circuit breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is designed specifically for Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards. It mounts directly to the bus and is compatible with xGB branch unit spaces.
Can the HGB1B060B be used in DC power systems?
Yes, this breaker is rated for 125VDC applications, providing an interrupting capacity of up to 42kAIC at 125VDC. This makes it suitable for specific industrial control and battery backup circuits.
Is this breaker suitable for 347V commercial lighting circuits?
Yes, the HGB1B060B is rated for 347VAC systems with a 14kAIC interrupting rating. This makes it a standard choice for 600Y/347V commercial and industrial lighting applications.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the HGB1B060B?
The factory-installed lugs accept 8 to 1/0 AWG copper (Cu) conductors or 8 to 2/0 AWG aluminum (Al) conductors.
What is the difference between Siemens NGB, HGB, and LGB circuit breakers?
The primary difference is their short-circuit interrupting ratings. All three share the same physical xGB frame footprint and panelboard compatibility, but the HGB offers a higher interrupting capacity (35kAIC at 277V) than the standard NGB, while the LGB provides the highest rating in the series.
Are the trip settings on the HGB1B060B adjustable?
No, this breaker features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit with Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) functions. The trip curve is factory-calibrated and cannot be adjusted in the field.
How does the HGB1B060B connect to the panelboard?
It utilizes a bolt-on connection type. This provides a secure, vibration-resistant mechanical and electrical connection directly to the panelboard bus, which is required in many commercial and industrial specifications.
What frame family does the HGB1B060B belong to?
It is part of the Siemens GB/GG frame family, commonly referred to as the xGB frame when used in P-series panelboard applications.
