Part of the Q2 series, this 200A, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker provides essential overcurrent protection for industrial facilities. It features long-time and instantaneous trip functions. Designed for group-mounted applications, it fits Square D I-Line panelboards utilizing a BC phase connection. For system upgrades, this unit is replaced by the QBA22200 breaker. With a 10kAIC rating, it includes the signature Visi-Trip indicator to easily spot tripped conditions.
What does the BC suffix in the Q221200BC catalog number indicate?
The BC suffix designates the phase connection. This specific breaker is configured with plug-on jaws that connect exclusively to the B and C phases on the bus stack of a Square D I-Line panelboard.
Is the Q221200BC a current production breaker?
No, this is a legacy Q-frame circuit breaker. For system upgrades or new installations requiring a 200A, 10kAIC I-Line breaker, it is typically superseded by the modern PowerPact Q-frame equivalent, base catalog number QBA22200 (specific phase connection suffixes will apply).
How can I visually identify if this breaker has tripped?
The Q221200BC features a Visi-Trip indicator. When a fault causes the breaker to trip, the handle moves to a center position and a highly visible red indicator appears in the window, allowing for quick identification in a crowded panel.
Are the thermal and magnetic trip settings adjustable on this model?
No. This breaker utilizes a standard thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed long-time and fixed instantaneous trip functions. It does not offer adjustable dials for customizing the trip curve.
Does the Q221200BC require a separate mounting bracket kit?
No. Like all I-Line style circuit breakers, it features integrated plug-on jaws and a mounting bracket that attach directly to the panelboard bus and backpan. No additional mounting hardware kits are required for installation.
