Product FAQs

8 answers
What panels are compatible with the BDA260802 circuit breaker?

This PowerPacT B-frame breaker is designed exclusively for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It features a shrouded I-Line plug-on jaw for the line side and mechanical lugs on the load side.

Which legacy Square D breaker does the BDA260802 replace?

The BDA260802 is the modern PowerPacT B-frame equivalent and a drop-in replacement for legacy 80A, 2-pole FA-frame I-Line breakers, such as the FA26080AC [4].

Which panelboard phases does the BDA260802 connect to?

This specific catalog number is factory configured for an AC phase connection [4, 6]. When mounted in an I-Line panelboard, its plug-on jaws will connect to the A and C phase busbars.

Is the BDA260802 rated for DC applications?

Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for use in 250VDC systems with a 10kA interrupting capacity.

Is this circuit breaker HACR rated?

Yes, the BDA260802 carries an HACR rating [4, 8]. This makes it approved for overcurrent protection in heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment involving group motor installations.

What is the required tightening torque for the load lugs?

The tightening torque depends on the installed conductor size. For 14 AWG to 10 AWG wire, torque the lugs to 31.9 to 38.9 lb-in (3.6 to 4.4 N-m) [3, 4]. For larger 8 AWG to 2/0 AWG conductors, apply 44.3 to 54.9 lb-in (5.0 to 6.2 N-m) [3, 4].

What wire types and sizes are accepted by the factory lugs?

The standard mechanical load lugs accept either aluminum or copper (Al/Cu) conductors. The supported wire gauge ranges from a 14 AWG minimum up to a 2/0 AWG maximum.

Can I adjust the trip settings on the BDA260802?

No, this breaker utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the long-time (overload) and instantaneous (short circuit) trip thresholds are factory set and non-adjustable.

    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!
