Westinghouse | RE2060 | Circuit Breaker | 60A | 2-Pole | 240V | Bolt-On

Westinghouse RE2060 60A, 2-Pole, 240V Bolt-On Circuit Breaker is built for dependable protection in maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects. Designed to match standard Westinghouse and compatible panels, this 60-amp, two-pole breaker delivers reliable shutoff for heavy-load circuits while simplifying installation with a bolt-on mount.

• Amperage: 60A
• Pole configuration: 2-Pole
• Voltage rating: 240V
• Mounting: Bolt-On
• Reference: Part number RE2060

Why this breaker stands out: the RE2060 delivers a straightforward bolt-on installation that minimizes field wiring complexity and provides a solid, secure connection in compatible panels. The two-pole design ensures simultaneous disconnection of both hot legs in 240V circuits, which is essential for safely interrupting power to heavy appliances and multi-wire branch circuits. This is especially valuable in retrofit scenarios where upgrading a panel to support higher loads or replacing a failed unit is needed.

Ideal use cases

• Replacing a worn or faulty 60A 2-pole breaker in residential or light commercial panels.
• Upgrading or retrofitting circuits to support 240V loads such as electric water heaters, large air conditioning units, or multi-zone HVAC equipment.
• Maintenance and panel refresh projects where a like-for-like, bolt-on replacement is preferred for compatibility and reliability.

Important compatibility and installation notes

• Compatibility check: Confirm fit and ratings before ordering. The best reference for compatibility is the part number RE2060.
• Installation tip: Ensure the panel is de-energized and follow all manufacturer torque specifications and safety guidelines when mounting a bolt-on breaker.
• Scenario planning: If your circuit requires a 60A protection on a 240V line, this breaker provides the appropriate interrupting capacity for safe operation in standard residential and light commercial applications.

For those upgrading or replacing a 60A, 2-pole 240V circuit, the Westinghouse RE2060 offers a straightforward, reliable solution with bolt-on ease and a design purpose-built for compatibility with Westinghouse panels. When in doubt, reference the RE2060 part number to ensure a precise match for your electrical system and long-term protection.
