Square D EGB16060 - 60 A, 277 V, 1-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Square D EGB16060 60A, 277V, 1-Pole Bolt-On Molded Case Circuit Breaker is engineered to shield your branch circuits with precision and reliability. Built for panelboards and load centers, this single-pole protector delivers robust overcurrent and short-circuit protection where it matters most.

Designed for environments that demand stability, the secure bolt-on mounting creates a rigid, vibration-resistant bus connection. That means fewer loose connections and steadier performance in electrical rooms, equipment racks, and busy commercial spaces.

The thermal-magnetic trip unit combines a precise thermal element for overload detection with a fast magnetic trip for instantaneous short-circuit interruption. The result is repeatable, predictable protection across a range of temperatures and load conditions, helping to safeguard wiring, devices, and downstream circuitry.

Key advantages tailored to real-world use:

• Secure bolt-on mounting: durable, vibration-resistant connection to the panelboard bus for long-term reliability.
• Thermal-magnetic protection: stable overload response plus immediate short-circuit interruption to minimize damage.
• OEM compatibility: designed to pair with matching Square D load centers and panelboards for seamless retrofits or new installations.
• Versatile applications: ideal for residential, commercial, and light industrial settings where 277V circuits are common (lighting, controls, small equipment).
• 1-Pole, 60A at 277V: targeted protection for a single hot conductor on 277V distribution paths.
