Product FAQs
6 answersWhat legacy Square D circuit breaker does the BGA260701 replace?
The PowerPacT B-frame BGA260701 serves as a direct drop-in replacement for the legacy FA26070AB F-frame circuit breaker. It fits the same Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards.
What does the "1" at the end of the BGA260701 catalog number signify?
The "1" indicates an AB phase connection. This specifies which bus bars the I-Line plug-on jaws will connect to when installed in a Square D panelboard.
How is the BGA260701 wired and mounted?
This breaker uses an I-Line plug-in connection on the line side, which snaps directly onto the panelboard bus. The load side features mechanical lugs that accept 14 to 2/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.
Is the BGA260701 circuit breaker HACR rated?
Yes, this PowerPacT B-frame breaker is HACR rated, making it suitable and approved for protecting heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration circuits.
Can the BGA260701 be manually tripped for testing or maintenance?
Yes, PowerPacT B-frame circuit breakers feature an integral push-to-trip button on the cover, allowing you to manually trip the breaker to verify the mechanism is functioning correctly.
What is a trip-free mechanism on the BGA260701?
The trip-free mechanism ensures the circuit breaker will trip during an overload or short circuit even if the operating handle is physically held or locked in the ON position.
