The Square D BGL36060 is a 3 Pole thermal magnetic molded case circuit breaker with a current rating of 60 Amps and a voltage rating of 600Y/347VAC. It has an interrupting rating of 65kAIC at 240VAC, 35kAIC at 480VAC. The BGL36060 has a feed-thru connection type and includes long time and instantaneous trip functions.
What older Square D breakers does the BGL36060 replace?
The PowerPact B-frame unit-mount breakers are the modern replacements for legacy Square D FAL and FHL series breakers, specifically replacing the FAL36060 and FHL36060 models.
What type of wire connections does the BGL36060 use?
It features EverLink creep-compensating lugs on both the line and load sides. These lugs are designed to prevent bare cables from loosening over time due to thermal cycling and accept 14 AWG to 3/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.
How is the BGL36060 mounted in a panel?
This is a unit-mount breaker that offers flexible installation. It can be mounted to a traditional back pan using screws, or it can be snapped directly onto a standard 35mm DIN rail using its integrated mounting clip. It is not compatible with I-Line panelboards.
What does the G in the BGL36060 part number indicate?
The G designates the interrupting rating tier within the PowerPact B series. For this model, it signifies a maximum breaking capacity of 65kA at 240VAC, 35kA at 480VAC, and 18kA at 600VAC.
Can the BGL36060 be used in DC circuits?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications up to 250VDC, where it provides a 20kA interrupting rating.
What type of trip unit is installed in the BGL36060?
It is equipped with a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit featuring Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) protection functions. The thermal and magnetic trip points are factory set and cannot be adjusted.
What enclosures and panels are compatible with the BGL36060?
This B-frame breaker is designed for use in industrial control panels, switchboards, and compatible Square D circuit breaker enclosures. It requires a unit-mount setup and will not fit in panels requiring plug-on or bolt-on branch breakers.
