Product FAQs
7 answers
What type of panelboards are compatible with the BGA260152 circuit breaker?
This breaker is designed exclusively for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It utilizes the proprietary I-Line plug-in mounting system, which allows for flexible phase connections and rapid installation.
What wire sizes and materials are accepted by the lugs on the BGA260152?
The factory-installed lugs accept both aluminum and copper conductors ranging from 14 AWG to 2/0 AWG. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation as outlined by Schneider Electric.
What does the "G" in the BGA260152 catalog number indicate?
In the Square D PowerPacT B-Frame nomenclature, the "G" designates the interrupting rating tier. For this breaker, it indicates a maximum rating of 65 kA at 240V, 35 kA at 480V, and 18 kA at 600V.
Can the BGA260152 replace older Square D circuit breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT B-Frame series is the designated modern replacement for legacy Square D FA and FH series breakers. It maintains the same I-Line mounting dimensions to easily retrofit into existing panelboards.
Can the BGA260152 be used in DC voltage applications?
Yes, while primarily used in AC systems up to 600Y/347VAC, this breaker is also rated for DC applications up to 250VDC. It provides an interrupting capacity of 20 kA for DC circuits, making it suitable for specific control panel or battery system setups.
Does the BGA260152 feature adjustable trip settings?
No, this specific model features fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip elements. It provides standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection without field adjustability.
What trip technology does the BGA260152 use to protect circuits?
It utilizes thermal magnetic trip technology. The thermal element protects against sustained overloads by heating a bimetallic strip, while the magnetic element provides instantaneous protection against short circuits.
