Q260 Mp260 Circuit Breaker, Double Pole, 60-amp, 120/240-volt

The Siemens Q260 MP260 is a double-pole circuit breaker designed for 120/240-volt residential and commercial electrical panels. This breaker provides essential protection for high-load circuits by instantly interrupting power when it detects an overload or short circuit, reducing the risk of fire and equipment damage. It is ideal for protecting circuits serving heavy-demand appliances such as electric ranges, water heaters, HVAC systems, and other 240-volt equipment that require two hot legs.

With its plug-in mounting design and compact 2-inch form factor, this breaker fits seamlessly into standard residential panels while optimizing space in crowded breaker boxes. The common trip mechanism ensures that both poles disconnect simultaneously, meeting NEC requirements for balanced 240-volt circuits and delivering reliable, consistent protection for your electrical system.
