Description

Built for commercial and industrial applications, this 20A molded case circuit breaker utilizes thermal-magnetic trip technology for precise overcurrent protection. The unit mounts into standard Square D I-Line panelboards, functioning as an exact replacement for discontinued FH16020A breakers. With a Phase A connection and current-limiting capabilities, it delivers a 35kAIC rating at 480Y/277V to safely interrupt severe electrical faults in demanding distribution networks.

Product FAQs

7 answers
What panels are compatible with the BGA160201 circuit breaker?

This breaker is designed for use in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It features an I-Line plug-on connection for the line side and a mechanical lug for the load side.

Does the BGA160201 replace older Square D breakers?

Yes, the PowerPacT B-frame replaces legacy FA and FH series breakers. Specifically, this model is the direct replacement for the discontinued 20-amp, 1-pole FA16020A and FH16020A I-Line circuit breakers. It maintains the same mounting space dimensions for easy retrofitting.

Which phase is this 1-pole breaker configured for?

The BGA160201 is factory-configured for a Phase A connection in an I-Line panelboard. If you need to connect to Phase B or Phase C, a different catalog number is required.

What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on this breaker?

The load-side lug accepts 14 AWG to 2/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire. The line side does not require wiring, as it plugs directly into the I-Line bus.

What does the G in the BGA160201 catalog number signify?

The G indicates the breaker's interrupting rating tier within the PowerPacT B-frame family. For this model, it provides 65kA at 240VAC, 35kA at 480Y/277VAC, and 18kA at 600Y/347VAC.

What type of trip unit is installed in the BGA160201?

It features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit with Long-Time (L) and Instantaneous (I) protection functions. The thermal and magnetic trip levels are factory-set and non-adjustable.

Is this breaker rated for DC voltage applications?

Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, the BGA160201 is rated for up to 125VDC with an interrupting capacity of 20kAIC.
