Square D BGA260504 50A 2-Pole 347 V Circuit Breaker

The Square D BGA260504 50A 2-Pole 347 V Circuit Breaker is a robust mid‑voltage protection device designed to safeguard commercial and light industrial electrical distributions. With a 50‑amp current rating, a two‑pole construction, and a 347‑volt rating, it delivers reliable, coordinated disconnection on fault conditions to keep circuits safe and equipment protected.

Key design features

• 2‑pole protection engages both conductors simultaneously to interrupt fault currents and prevent backfeed in multi‑wire or three‑phase systems.
• 347 V voltage rating is tailored for mid‑voltage distribution common in commercial facilities and certain industrial applications.
• Thermal‑magnetic trip mechanism provides reliable overload protection and fast short‑circuit response, helping minimize damage to wiring and connected equipment.
• Part number BGA260504 ensures you’re selecting the exact replacement within the Square D lineup for consistent performance and compatibility.

Why this matters

• Protects feeders, motors, and power circuits from overloads and electrical faults, reducing wear and the risk of costly downtime.
• Helps align mid‑voltage installations with safety codes by providing a dependable, code‑compliant protection device in your distribution panel.
• Ideal for professionals managing commercial buildings, retail centers, data centers, and light manufacturing environments where 347 V distribution is standard.

Use cases and applications

• Main or branch protection in mid‑voltage panels serving commercial electrical systems.
• Replacement part in existing Square D installations that require a 50 A, 2‑pole, 347 V circuit breaker.
• Protection for feeders powering lighting, control circuits, and key equipment in offices, warehouses, and other non‑residential facilities.

Installation and best practices

• Install in accordance with local electrical codes and the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
• Verify compatibility with your Square D distribution panel and wire sizing for 50 A circuits.
• Ensure proper wiring, secure connections, and appropriate protection coordination within the overall panel protection scheme.

Engineered for reliability in mid‑voltage environments, the Square D BGA260504 delivers precise protection where it matters most—safeguarding people, property, and critical equipment in commercial and light industrial settings.
