any important difference between a 120/240v breaker and a 240vbreaker?
I'm installing a subpanel fed from a 2-pole 60A breaker over 6/3
romex. I picked up the breaker (a Square D QO) and after I got home realized it says 120/240v. Is there any difference this and a breaker that is just 240v? |

I would imagine all double pole breakers are 120/240 except for certain GFCI
models. In any event, you are using it as a 120/240 volt feeder main for your sub panel, so you've got the right thing wrote in message ...
