Product FAQs
6 answersWhat does the "1" at the end of the BDA260801 catalog number signify?
In the Square D PowerPacT B-Frame I-Line series, the "1" suffix indicates an AB phase connection. This dictates that the breaker will connect to the A and B phases on the panelboard bus.
Is the BDA260801 a direct replacement for older F-Frame breakers?
Yes. The PowerPacT B-Frame is the manufacturer-designated replacement for obsolete Square D F-Frame breakers. The BDA260801 serves as a drop-in upgrade for older 80A, 2-pole I-Line models such as the FA26080AB.
What type of conductors are compatible with the load lugs on this breaker?
The factory-installed load lugs accept both aluminum and copper (Al/Cu) conductors. They accommodate wire sizes ranging from 14 AWG to 2/0 AWG.
Are the thermal and magnetic trip settings adjustable on this model?
No. The BDA260801 is equipped with a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the long-time (thermal) and instantaneous (magnetic) overcurrent protection functions are factory-set and non-adjustable.
How does this breaker mount into the panelboard?
The BDA260801 utilizes an I-Line plug-on connection on the line side, which snaps directly onto the bus assembly of compatible Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. The load side uses standard mechanical lugs for wire termination.
Can the BDA260801 be installed in direct current (DC) systems?
Yes. While primarily used for AC distribution, this breaker is also rated for DC applications up to 250VDC, providing a 10kA interrupting capacity for those systems.
