8 answers
What does the Y2 suffix mean in the BDA24020Y2 catalog number?
The Y2 suffix indicates that this 2-pole breaker is configured for an AC phase connection on the I-Line busbar stack.
Which panelboards are compatible with the BDA24020Y2 circuit breaker?
This breaker is designed exclusively for Square D I-Line power distribution panelboards and switchboards. It will not fit in standard QO or NQ load centers.

Is the BDA24020Y2 a direct replacement for older Square D breakers?

Installed & working
Ordered this from SuperBreakers when local vendors were quoting me 25%+.
So I got a refurbished version of this breaker.
It is installed and working.
Also, service was great.
Thank you SuperBreakers!
