Product FAQs
5 answers
What does the 8041 suffix mean on the QOM2200VH8041 catalog number?
The 8041 suffix indicates that this breaker includes a factory-installed control wire tap lug. This feature allows you to securely connect small control wires (typically 22 to 14 AWG) directly at the breaker terminal to provide power for control circuits, metering devices, or alarms.
Can the exact same QOM2 main breaker be used in both QO and Homeline load centers?
Yes. Unlike plug-on branch breakers which are strictly proprietary to their respective panel types, main breakers in the QOM2 frame size are universally compatible with both Square D QO and Homeline load centers, provided the panel is designed to accept a QOM2 main breaker.
What is the difference between the standard QOM2200 and the QOM2200VH?
Physically, both breakers share the exact same QOM2 frame footprint and mounting design. The difference lies in their short-circuit interrupting ratings. The standard QOM2200 is rated at 10 kA, while the VH (Very High) suffix on the QOM2200VH designates a 22 kA interrupting rating. You can install the VH version in a 10 kA system, but you cannot use a standard QOM2200 if your system fault current requires a 22 kA rating.
Will a QOM2 main breaker fit in an older load center designed for QOM1 breakers?
No. The QOM2 frame is physically larger than the QOM1 frame and the two are not backwards interchangeable. You must verify that your specific load center is rated to accept a QOM2 main breaker before attempting installation.
Can I use this QOM2 breaker as a branch circuit breaker in my panel?
No. Circuit breakers in the QOM2 frame size are engineered exclusively for use as main circuit breakers. They bolt directly to the main bus structure of a convertible load center and cannot be plugged into branch breaker positions.
