Description

Built to optimize panel capacity, this Eaton quadplex breaker delivers both a 20A and a 30A 240V circuit without requiring four full spaces. The device features a plug-on mounting style designed for Eaton BR family load centers. It incorporates a CTL rejection tab to restrict installation to appropriately rated panelboard slots, ensuring safe and code-compliant upgrades. With a standard 10kAIC interrupt rating, both the 20A and 30A circuits feature common trip operation and are HACR rated.

Product FAQs

6 answers
What panels are compatible with the Eaton BQC220230 quad breaker?

This breaker is designed for use in Eaton Type BR load centers. Because it is a CTL (Circuit Total Limiting) breaker with a rejection tab, it must be installed in panel positions that have notched bus stabs designed to accept tandem and quad breakers.

Can the BQC220230 replace older Westinghouse or Bryant quad breakers?

Yes, Eaton Type BR circuit breakers are UL listed as genuine replacements for legacy Westinghouse, Challenger, and Bryant load centers that accept Type BR, BD, BQ, or BQC breakers.

Does the BQC220230 feature a common trip mechanism?

Yes, the BQC series features common trip functionality. The two inner poles are linked to trip synchronously, and the two outer poles are linked to trip synchronously, providing proper protection for 240V circuits.

How much panel space does the BQC220230 require?

This quadplex breaker provides two separate 240V circuits (one 20A and one 30A) while only occupying two standard 1-inch spaces in your load center.

What type of wire is compatible with the BQC220230 terminals?

The box lugs accept 14 to 4 AWG copper or aluminum (Cu/Al) wire, and are rated for use with 60 degree C or 75 degree C conductors.

Is the BQC220230 rated for HVAC equipment?

Yes, Eaton Type BQC quadplex circuit breakers carry a listing for HACR (Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration) applications.

    Perfect fit.

    Excellent quality and fitment. The amount of time from order to delivery is much too long - over two weeks. Good order updates.
