It operates at 120\/240 volts AC and carries a 10-kiloamp interrupting rating, making it suitable for branch circuit overcurrent protection in standard panelboard installations. The common-trip design ensures both poles open simultaneously under a fault condition. Licensed electricians install this breaker as part of new construction wiring or panel upgrades. It accepts copper or aluminum conductors ranging from 14 to 2 AWG, covering most residential feeder and branch circuit applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CH260 is built for use in CH Series load centers. It fits plug-on breaker slots and handles typical 240-volt branch circuits such as dryer outlets, water heaters, HVAC disconnect feeds, and sub-panel feeder applications. Its compact footprint at 3 inches long, 1.5 inches wide, and 3.5 inches tall keeps it compatible with standard residential panel configurations. This breaker is a direct plug-on replacement for existing CH Series panel slots and suits both new installation and service replacement work performed by licensed electricians following NEC guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-pole common-trip design opens both poles simultaneously on fault or overload\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e60-amp current rating covers dryer circuits, water heaters, and HVAC feeder applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10 kA interrupting rating suitable for residential and light commercial service entrances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug-on mounting for fast, tool-free installation in CH Series load centers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccepts 14 to 2 AWG copper or aluminum conductors\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUL 489 listed for branch circuit overcurrent protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with CH Series load centers.

De-energize the panel at the utility main or service disconnect before handling any breaker or panel wiring. Confirm wire gauge and conductor material match the breaker terminals before torquing connections. Do not use this breaker as a substitute for a main disconnect unless the enclosure and application are rated accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120\/240 volts AC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 amps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterrupting Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 kA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Poles\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrip Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Common Trip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug-On\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14 to 2 AWG (Copper or Aluminum)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApproval\u003c\/strong\u003e: UL 489\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SQUARE D\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CH260\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SQUARE D","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284139704626,"sku":"CH260","price":78.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309278266.jpg?v=1781069585","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/square-d-ch260-2-pole-60-amp-plug-on-circuit-breaker","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
