Square D PowerPact BGF16050 1-Pole 50A B-Frame MCCB Terminal Nut (Bolt-On)
125A Frame | 50A | 1P | 65kA@240V, 35kA@480V, 18kA@600Y/347V | Thermal-Magnetic (Fixed)
Designed for professional electrical installations, the PowerPact BGF16050 is a single-pole 50A B-Frame MCCB built on Schneider Electric's proven architecture, delivering factory-calibrated thermal-magnetic protection for branch circuit, feeder, and main breaker applications in modern power distribution systems. Built for unit mount deployment using Terminal Nut (Bolt-On) connections, the BGF16050 features a non-adjustable thermal-magnetic trip unit ensuring consistent and reliable overcurrent protection across all operating conditions. The factory-sealed trip element delivers coordinated overload and short-circuit protection at 600Y/347V AC with interrupting ratings of 65kA@240V, 35kA@480V, 18kA@600Y/347V. The B-Frame housing incorporates Schneider Electric's dual-break contact mechanism providing superior arc management, reduced contact erosion, and extended operational service life up to 15,000 mechanical cycles for long-term reliability. With {connection} terminations for unit mount installation, this breaker accommodates flexible system designs in panelboards, switchboards, and motor control equipment. The termination system accepts wire sizes from 14 AWG through 2/0 AWG. The B-Frame compact footprint maximizes equipment density while the robust housing maintains full electrical clearances and insulation requirements for safe operation. This circuit breaker complies with UL 489, CSA C22.2 No.5, IEC/EN 60947-2, NOM, CCC, CE, and EAC international standards for global deployment approval. It integrates seamlessly with PowerPact B-Frame accessories including alarm contacts, remote trip devices, mechanical interlocks, rotary operating mechanisms, padlock attachments for lockout/tagout procedures, and cable-operated handles for remote panel door operation in diverse installation configurations.
