Product FAQs
7 answers
What types of panels are compatible with the HDA260202 circuit breaker?
This breaker is designed exclusively for use in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It features an I-Line style plug-in connection for efficient installation directly onto the bus assembly.
Can the HDA260202 replace legacy Square D FA series breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT H-frame is the direct modern replacement for obsolete F-frame I-Line breakers. The HDA260202 can be used to upgrade or replace legacy 20A models like the FA26020AC while maintaining compatibility with your existing I-Line bus structure.
Which bus phases does the HDA260202 connect to in a panelboard?
The final digit in the HDA260202 catalog number indicates its phase configuration. This specific 2-pole breaker is factory-configured to connect to the A and C phases of the I-Line bus stack.
What are the conductor requirements for the HDA260202 lugs?
The standard mechanical lugs accept 14 to 3/0 AWG wire and are rated for both aluminum and copper conductors. Electricians must torque the lugs to Schneider Electric's specified values based on the wire gauge used.
How is the HDA260202 secured inside an I-Line panelboard?
The breaker features plug-on jaws that connect directly to the I-Line bus assembly. It is then mechanically fastened to the panel backpan using a mounting screw to ensure a secure, reliable connection under fault conditions.
What does the "D" in the HDA260202 catalog number signify?
In the Square D PowerPacT nomenclature, the "D" designates the breaker's interrupting capacity tier. For this H-frame model, the D-tier provides a maximum of 25kAIC at 240VAC, 18kAIC at 480VAC, and 14kAIC at 600VAC.
How does the thermal-magnetic trip unit function on this H-frame breaker?
The HDA260202 uses a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic (LI) trip unit. The thermal element provides long-time protection against sustained overloads, while the magnetic element provides instantaneous protection against short circuits.
