Product FAQs
9 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the HQP3025H circuit breaker?
This plug-on breaker is designed specifically for classic Westinghouse and Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards. It is not compatible with standard residential load centers like the Eaton BR or CH series.
Can the HQP3025H replace older QPHW breakers?
Yes, the HQP series serves as a direct plug-on replacement for older Westinghouse QPHW breakers with matching specifications. It fits the same Pow-R-Line panelboard chassis without requiring aftermarket adapters.
What is the acceptable wire size for the box lugs on this 25A breaker?
The terminal box lugs on the HQP3025H accept conductors ranging from 14 AWG to 4 AWG. Ensure proper wire sizing based on the 25A rating and local electrical codes.
What is the recommended terminal torque for the HQP3025H?
Torque requirements depend on the specific wire gauge being installed. Always refer to the breaker nameplate for exact torque specifications to ensure a secure and compliant connection.
Is this breaker suitable for 400 Hz applications?
No, standard Quicklag breakers like the HQP3025H are calibrated for 50/60Hz operation. Using them in 400 Hz systems requires a factory modification and significantly reduces the interrupting capacity.
Does this breaker provide arc fault or ground fault protection?
No, the HQP3025H is a standard thermal-magnetic circuit breaker providing overload and short-circuit protection. It does not include AFCI or GFCI circuitry.
Can I install the HQP3025H in a Square D or Siemens panel?
No, this breaker is exclusively designed for Eaton and Westinghouse Pow-R-Line panelboards. It lacks the physical mounting design and UL classification required for safe installation in other manufacturer panels.
What does the LI trip function code mean on this breaker?
The LI designation indicates that the thermal-magnetic trip unit provides Long-Time protection against sustained overloads and Instantaneous protection against severe short circuits. Both thermal and magnetic trip points are fixed.
Is the HQP3025H rated for HVAC equipment?
Yes, modern Eaton Quicklag breakers are HACR rated, making them suitable for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment circuits.
