What older Square D breakers does the BGA260404 replace?

The PowerPacT B-Frame BGA260404 is the designated replacement for legacy F-Frame I-Line breakers, specifically the FA26040BC and FH26040BC. It fits into the same I-Line panelboard mounting space without requiring bus modifications.

What phase connection does the BGA260404 use?
