The BE260 Siemens 2P60A 240V Bolt-On GFCI Breaker is designed for reliable protection against ground faults. With a 30mA sensitivity and a breaking capacity of 10kA, this circuit breaker ensures safety in high-demand applications. Ideal for residential and commercial use, it integrates seamlessly into your electrical system for optimal performance.
The BE260 includes built-in Class A ground-fault circuit interrupter protection with a 30mA trip sensitivity. This means it will trip when it detects a ground-fault leakage current of 30 milliamps or more, providing personnel protection beyond what a standard overcurrent breaker offers — meeting code requirements for GFCI protection in applicable locations such as bathrooms, kitchens, garages, and outdoor circuits.
The Siemens BE series bolt-on GFCI breakers can be difficult to source through standard distribution channels, particularly in 2-pole GFCI configurations. Northern Breaker Group specialises in obsolete and hard-to-find breakers and stocks or sources units for the Canadian market. Contact our Calgary, Edmonton, or Vancouver counters or request a quote online for current availability.
Yes — provided your panelboard accepts Siemens/ITE bolt-on BE series breakers, the BE260 can replace a standard 2-pole 60A bolt-on breaker while adding GFCI protection to that circuit. This is a common upgrade when bringing older circuits up to current Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) requirements. Always verify the panel's bus rating and available space before installation, and confirm compatibility with our team if you're unsure.
