Product FAQs
8 answers
What type of panelboards are compatible with the BDA260702?
This breaker features an I-Line plug-in connection, making it exclusively compatible with Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It cannot be installed in standard load centers or NQ/NF series panelboards.
Can I install this 2-pole breaker in a 3-phase I-Line panelboard?
Yes, you can install a 2-pole I-Line breaker into a 3-phase I-Line panelboard. The breaker's jaws will simply connect to two of the three available phases on the panel's bus stack.
What does the 'D' in the BDA part number indicate?
In the Square D PowerPacT nomenclature, the 'D' specifies the interrupting rating tier. For the B-frame series, the D-tier provides an 18kA interrupting capacity at 480VAC and 25kA at 240VAC.
Is this breaker rated for direct current (DC) systems?
Yes, the BDA260702 is rated for use in DC circuits up to 250VDC, where it provides a 10kA interrupting rating.
How is the BDA260702 secured to the panelboard?
It utilizes the Square D I-Line mounting system. The breaker's jaw contacts push directly onto the panelboard bus stack, and a captive retaining bracket is tightened with a screwdriver to secure it, eliminating the need for bolted bus connections.
What wire types are permitted for the factory lugs?
The factory-installed lugs are dual-rated for both copper (Cu) and aluminum (Al) conductors. They accept wire sizes ranging from 14 AWG to 2/0 AWG.
Can I adjust the trip curve on this breaker?
No, this breaker is equipped with a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the long-time (thermal) and instantaneous (magnetic) trip functions are factory set and cannot be adjusted in the field.
Which legacy Square D breakers does the PowerPacT B-frame replace?
The PowerPacT B-frame series serves as the modern, more compact replacement for legacy Square D 100A F-frame circuit breakers, including the FA and FH series.

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!
