Leviton LB215 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What amperages does the Leviton LB215 2-pole breaker family come in?
Seven double-pole ratings run from 15A up to 60A: LB215 (15A), LB220 (20A), LB230 (30A), LB235 (35A), LB240 (40A), LB250 (50A) and LB260 (60A). That covers the usual double-pole loads an electrician wires in a load center, from a 15A 240V circuit through baseboard heat, water heaters, dryers and small subfeeds. Order by the amp rating stamped on the breaker you are replacing, never higher than the branch circuit conductors allow.
2) Will a Leviton LB215 breaker fit in my existing panel?
It is a standard plug-on branch breaker built to common load center dimensions, so it drops into compatible Leviton load centers on the busbar stabs, no DIN rail and no bolt-on prep. It is not a DIN rail device. If your gear is a DIN rail panel, that calls for something like the Square D C60 UL489 miniature circuit breaker instead, and if it is an I-Line panelboard you need an I-Line breaker such as the Square D PowerPacT Q. Check the breaker brand and type label inside your panel door before ordering.
3) Do I need a 2-pole breaker or will a single pole work?
A 2-pole breaker like the Leviton LB215 takes both hot legs and gives you 240V across them, with the two handles tied so a fault on either leg trips both. Use it for 240V loads: water heaters, baseboard heat, condensing units, dryers, ranges, and any multiwire branch circuit that needs common trip. A 120V receptacle or lighting circuit only needs a single pole, and a Square D Multi9 C60 1-pole C-curve breaker is a 120V AC single-pole option. Pole count is not something you can change after the fact, so match it to the load.
4) Can I use this Leviton breaker to replace an existing 2-pole breaker in a load center?
Replacement and panel retrofit are exactly what these are catalogued for, alongside new construction. Pull the old breaker, confirm it was a plug-on standard type of the same amp rating, and confirm the panel accepts Leviton. What it will not do is substitute for a GFCI, AFCI or dual function breaker; this is straight thermal overcurrent and short circuit protection with no ground fault or arc fault sensing, so if the breaker you removed has a test button and a pigtail, you need the equivalent protected type, not this one.
5) My panel needs more than 10kA of fault current withstand - what do I move up to?
The Leviton LB215 family carries a 10 kiloamp short circuit current rating, which suits typical residential and light commercial services. Where the available fault current at the panel exceeds that, the molded case families are the step up: the Square D PowerPacT B thermal magnetic breaker, the Square D PowerPacT Q I-Line breaker, and the ABB A2N Series molded case breaker. Get the utility fault current calculation for the service before you pick, because the interrupting rating has to exceed the available fault current at that point in the system.
6) What breaker should I use if the load is three-phase instead of 240V single-phase?
The Leviton LB215 family is a 2-pole design, which covers 120/240V double-pole loads such as water heaters, baseboard heat, and 240V receptacle circuits. A three-phase load needs a 3-pole device instead. Three 3-pole options are the ABB A2N Series molded case breaker, the ABB E150 Series thermal magnetic breaker, and the ABB XT4 Series molded case breaker kit. Pole count is not something you work around with a 2-pole breaker; match the poles to the phases the circuit actually carries.
7) Can I put a Leviton LB220 on a DIN rail in a control panel?
No. The Leviton LB220 is a plug-on load center breaker built to standard panelboard dimensions and installs into a compatible load center, not onto a rail. For a DIN rail control panel, the Square D C60 UL489 miniature circuit breaker is the DIN rail mount device, and the Square D Multi9 C60 1-pole C-curve breaker is a DIN rail family member rated 120V AC. Mounting method is the deciding factor here, not the amp rating.
8) Is a UL1077 miniature breaker an acceptable substitute for a branch circuit breaker?
They are not interchangeable. The Leviton LB215 series provides branch circuit overcurrent protection for the wiring and connected equipment in residential and light commercial panelboards. The ABB ST200M is a miniature circuit breaker built to UL1077, which is the supplementary protection standard - a supplementary device protects equipment downstream of an already protected branch circuit and does not itself serve as the branch circuit protection. The Square D C60 is the UL489 miniature breaker in the comparable group, UL489 being the branch circuit standard. Check which listing your inspector expects before ordering.
9) Is the Leviton LB215 rated for commercial use or residential only?
Residential and light commercial panelboards both, which covers apartments, small offices, retail buildouts and multi-family unit panels. Heavy commercial and industrial distribution gear is a different class of device, usually molded case: the ABB A2N Series 3-pole molded case breaker or the ABB XT4 Series are that category. For a property manager standardizing unit panels across a building, the 15A through 60A double-pole range here keeps one breaker line across the portfolio.
10) Can I use this breaker for equipment protection on a control panel instead of branch circuit wiring?
This is a UL489-style branch circuit breaker for panelboard and load center use, not a supplementary protector. Control panel builders who need a supplementary device on a DIN rail are looking at something like the ABB ST200M, which is a UL1077 miniature circuit breaker, a different listing category entirely. Using a supplementary protector where branch circuit protection is required, or the reverse, is a common inspection failure.
11) I only need to protect a single 120V circuit - is the 2-pole Leviton the right part?
For a single-phase 120V branch circuit you want a 1-pole device, and the Leviton LB215 group is 2-pole throughout. The Square D Multi9 C60 is a 1-pole C-curve miniature circuit breaker rated 120V AC. Keep the 2-pole Leviton for the 120/240V double-pole loads in the panel - 240V equipment circuits, ranges, and the like - where both ungrounded conductors need to open together.
12) What is the difference between the Leviton LB260 and an I-Line breaker for a 60A feeder?
The Leviton LB260 is the 60A 2-pole member of the Leviton standard breaker group, a plug-on device for load centers built to standard panelboard dimensions. The Square D PowerPacT Q is an I-Line breaker, meaning it connects to the I-Line bus arrangement used in Square D distribution panelboards rather than a residential-style load center. The two mount to entirely different bus systems, so the choice follows the panel you already have in the wall, not the amperage.
13) How much does a Leviton 2-pole breaker weigh, and where is it made?
Each one runs 0.85 pounds and is made in Mexico. That weight matters mostly for anyone ordering a full panel's worth for a rehab or a stocking order, and country of origin comes up on government and institutional jobs that carry domestic sourcing language in the spec.
