BQCH1B060 - 60Amp Circuit Breaker

BQCH1B060 - 60 Amp Circuit Breaker

The BQCH1B060 is a 60-amp, single-pole bolt-on circuit breaker designed for use in compatible BQCH panelboards. It provides branch circuit protection at 277VAC and carries a 14kA interrupting rating, making it suitable for commercial electrical systems operating within those fault current limits. This molded case breaker is rated for 40°C ambient conditions and is HACR approved, so it can be used with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment where permitted by code.

Because this unit uses a bolt-on mounting style, it fastens directly to the panelboard bus for a secure connection. That makes it a practical choice when replacing an existing BQCH frame breaker and maintaining the original equipment configuration. It’s built to last and intended to deliver consistent protection within its listed ratings.

Where It Works Best

• The BQCH1B060 is commonly installed in commercial buildings, retail spaces, office environments, and light industrial facilities using 277VAC distribution. It works well for lighting circuits, rooftop HVAC units, refrigeration systems, and other branch circuits requiring a 60 amp, single-pole breaker. If you’re matching an existing BQCH bolt-on breaker in a panelboard, this unit is designed to provide the correct form, fit, and function for that setup.
