Eaton BW2200 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What wire size can I land on a 200 amp Eaton BW main breaker?
The lugs take #2 AWG through 300 kcmil, copper or aluminum. That covers the usual 200A service entrance conductors, including 4/0 aluminum SER and 2/0 copper. No separate lug kit is needed.
2) What is the difference between the Eaton BW2200 and BW2200W?
Both are the same 200A two-pole 120/240V BW main. BW2200 is the plug-on breaker by itself; BW2200W is supplied as a kit main breaker, which is how you order it when you are converting or fitting out an enclosure rather than replacing a bare breaker. If you are swapping a failed main in an existing panel, the plug-on breaker is what you want.
3) Can I use this Eaton 200A breaker on a 208Y/120 three-phase panel?
No. It is a two-pole breaker rated 120/240V only, built for single-phase line-to-line service. For a three-phase 208Y/120 distribution panel you need a three-pole main rated for that system.
4) Will a BW 200A main fit in the space my old main occupied?
The breaker measures 5 x 5.25 x 6.25 inches. Check that footprint against the main breaker pocket in your panel, particularly the 6.25 inch depth, since that plus wire bending space determines whether the deadfront closes over the lugs.
5) Is this Eaton main breaker listed for service entrance use in a commercial building?
It is UL 489 listed, the standard for molded case circuit breakers, and it is applied as a main in residential and light commercial panels including multi-family, office, and retail service entrance work. The controlling factors for your job are the 200A rating, the 120/240V single-phase system, and available fault current against the 10 kAIC rating.
6) Does a plug-on main breaker need mounting hardware or a hold-down kit?
The BW main uses a plug-on connection, so it makes its mechanical and electrical connection directly to the panel bus with no bolting to the bus required. Some enclosures still use a retaining strap or screw supplied with the panel; reuse what came off the old main.
