Eaton BW2150 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What amperages does the Eaton Type BW two-pole main breaker come in?
Two amperage ratings are offered on the Eaton Type BW 2-pole plug-on breaker: 100A as part number BW2100, and 150A as BW2150. Both are 120/240V, 2-pole main meter breakers. Match the rating to the service size you are protecting, so a 100 amp service takes the BW2100 and a 150 amp service the BW2150.
2) Will an Eaton BW breaker plug into my existing load center?
Only if the panel is built for Type BW. The BW breaker is a plug-on mount unit intended for compatible Eaton Type BW meter breaker panels and load centers. It is not a bolt-on unit and it is not a universal fit, so check the panel label for the Type BW designation before ordering. Panels calling for a different Eaton breaker type will not accept it.
3) Can I use this Eaton BW two-pole breaker as the main disconnect on a 120/240V service?
That is exactly what it is built for. The Type BW 2-pole breaker is a main meter breaker, used as the primary disconnect at the service entrance on single-phase 120/240 volt services, residential or light commercial. It is not intended as a branch breaker inside the panel.
4) Is this a single-pole or two-pole Eaton breaker, and what does that mean for my service?
Two-pole. It lands on both hot legs of a single-phase 120/240V service, which is what a main disconnect has to do. A single-pole breaker only opens one leg at 120V and cannot serve as the main on a 240V service.
5) I am upgrading an old service panel. Is the BW breaker suitable for a replacement main, or only for new work?
Both. The plug-on Type BW main breaker is used in new construction and as a drop-in replacement main in existing Type BW meter breaker panels and load centers during a service panel upgrade. The deciding factor is the panel, not the age of the job: if the enclosure is Type BW, the breaker plugs in.
