Description
Built to protect dedicated equipment circuits, the Siemens MP260EG provides 30mA ground-fault equipment protection (GFEP). This 60A, two-pole plug-on breaker safeguards machinery from line-to-ground faults, distinguishing it from standard 5mA personnel GFCI breakers. It installs into compatible Murray and Siemens load centers for residential and commercial applications. The unit features a 10 kAIC rating at 120/240V and a pigtail neutral. It is replaced by the QE260.Specifications

Product FAQs
4 answersCan I install the MP260EG in a Siemens load center?
Yes. Siemens manufactures this breaker and it is fully compatible with both Murray and Siemens load centers that accept plug-in MP or QP style breakers.
What is the direct Siemens replacement for the Murray MP260EG?
The direct Siemens equivalent for this 60A GFEP breaker is catalog number QE260. Siemens phased out the Murray brand and replaced MP-ET series breakers with the QE series.
What is the ground fault trip threshold for this MP-ET breaker?
As a Ground Fault Equipment Protection (GFEP) breaker, it features a 30mA trip threshold. This is designed to protect equipment such as heat tracing or snow melting systems, rather than providing the 5mA personnel protection of a standard GFCI.
How is the neutral connection made on the MP260EG?
This breaker utilizes a pigtail neutral connection. The attached coiled white wire must be terminated directly to the neutral bus bar in the panel to power the internal ground fault circuitry.
