Square D BGL PowerPacT B 1-Pole Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker

Square D BGL PowerPacT B 1-Pole Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker

The Square D PowerPacT B-Frame BGL is a 1-pole thermal-magnetic circuit breaker built for compact, reliable protection in commercial and industrial distribution systems. This model is offered with a Motor FLA setting selectable from 15A to 30A, so panel builders and contractors can match the breaker to the connected motor load while retaining the same PowerPacT B platform performance. Every option in this family shares a 600Y/347VAC voltage rating, an 18kA interrupt rating at 80% rated application, and UL 489 listing, making the BGL a dependable choice across a range of commercial and industrial branch-circuit and motor-protection applications.
