No. The special breaker was to bridge the two phases (in North America anyway). Even then it's not always required. I have the Western Digital powerline devices, on different phases without a bridge and I get 49 Mbs. For a test I put them on the same phase and got 120. I use one in the den to stream video/music and an IP security cam. Had it about 2 years and after installing them, I haven't touched them. I liked the WD because each end has a 4 port switch.
