Product FAQs
7 answersIs the BDA160353 a direct replacement for older Square D breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT B-frame series is the modern replacement for legacy F-frame breakers, including the FA and FH series, used in Square D I-Line panelboards.
What does the final digit in the BDA160353 catalog number indicate?
For 1-pole PowerPacT B-frame I-Line breakers, the final digit specifies the phase connection. The "3" indicates this breaker is configured for a Phase B connection on the panelboard bus.
Can I add electrical accessories to this breaker in the field?
Yes, PowerPacT B-frame circuit breakers support a wide range of field-installable accessories. Shunt trips, undervoltage releases, and auxiliary contacts can be mounted internally under the front cover at any point in the design or build cycle.
What does the "D" in the BDA160353 part number signify?
The "D" indicates the interrupting rating tier for the PowerPacT B-frame. For this specific tier, the breaker provides a 25kA capacity at 240VAC, 18kA at 480Y/277VAC, and 14kA at 600Y/347VAC.
Can the BDA160353 be used in DC circuits?
Yes, this breaker is rated for use in DC applications up to 125VDC, where it provides a 10kA interrupting capacity.
How does the I-Line mounting system work for this breaker?
The I-Line plug-in design allows the breaker to engage directly onto the panelboard bus stack using plug-on jaws. It is then secured with a retaining bracket for a fast, reliable installation without the need for individual cable connections to the bus.
Does this breaker allow for manual tripping during maintenance?
Yes, all PowerPacT B-frame circuit breakers feature an integral push-to-trip button on the front cover. This allows you to manually trip the mechanism to verify mechanical operation and ensure safety before servicing the panel.
