Product FAQs
6 answersCan I install the QBHGF2030 in a standard residential load center?
No. The QBHGF2030 is a bolt-on circuit breaker designed specifically for Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards. It is not compatible with standard plug-on residential load centers like the Eaton BR or CH series.
Which Eaton panelboards accept the QBHGF series breakers?
These bolt-on breakers are compatible with Eaton Pow-R-Line distribution panelboards, such as the PRL1a and PRL2a, and other commercial panels designed to accept BAB or QB-frame bolt-on breakers.
What is the ground fault trip sensitivity for the QBHGF2030?
This breaker features a 5mA trip threshold, classifying it as a Class A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) designed for personnel protection.
What is the difference between the Eaton QBGF2030 and the QBHGF2030?
The difference is the interrupting rating. The standard QBGF2030 is rated at 10kAIC, while the QBHGF2030 has a higher interrupting capacity of 22kAIC at 120/240V.
How is the neutral connection wired on this GFCI breaker?
The QBHGF2030 features a pigtail neutral. This coiled white wire must be connected directly to the panelboard neutral bus bar for the ground fault detection circuitry to function properly.
How do I wire the load neutral on a 120/240V circuit with this breaker?
If your 120/240V load requires a neutral, the load neutral wire must be terminated directly at the neutral lug on the breaker. Do not land the load neutral on the panel neutral bar, as this will cause the GFCI to trip. For straight 240V loads without a neutral, leave the breaker load neutral lug empty.
