Engineered for wet and damp environments, this 30A GFCI breaker provides essential personnel protection against electrical shocks. The 2-pole device installs seamlessly into Square D Homeline load centers using a standard plug-on mounting style. Featuring a 10 kAIC interrupt rating at 120/240VAC and a pigtail neutral connection, it meets rigorous NEC standards for residential safety. The thermal-magnetic core delivers dependable overload and short-circuit defense for branch circuits.
Can I install the HOM230GFI in a Square D QO load center?
No. The HOM230GFI is exclusively designed for Square D Homeline load centers. QO panels require QO series breakers, which use a different mounting mechanism.
Can this 2-pole GFCI breaker be used for a 240V load without a neutral wire?
Yes. You can use the HOM230GFI for straight 240V loads without a load neutral by connecting only the two hot wires to the breaker. However, the breaker's white pigtail wire must still be connected to the panel neutral bus bar to power the internal GFCI electronics and test button.
Is the HOM230GFI a Plug-on Neutral (PoN) breaker?
No, this model features a pigtail neutral connection. The coiled white wire must be manually routed and secured to the neutral bus bar in your load center.
What is the recommended tightening torque for the load terminals on the HOM230GFI?
The load terminals should be torqued to 40.7 lb-in (4.6 N-m) for secure and compliant connections.
What class of ground-fault protection does the HOM230GFI provide?
This breaker provides Class A ground-fault protection, meaning it is designed to trip when it detects a ground fault of 6 milliamperes. This level of protection is standard for personnel safety in wet or damp locations.
What is the difference between the HOM230GFI and HOM230GFIC catalog numbers?
The C at the end of HOM230GFIC indicates clamshell packaging for retail display. The circuit breaker inside the package is the exact same HOM230GFI component.
Is the HOM230GFI suitable for hot tub or spa applications?
Yes, provided the equipment requires a 30A, 120/240V circuit. The Class A GFCI rating meets NEC requirements for personnel protection around pools, spas, and hot tubs.

I went to the big box stores (3) and no one had either of my breakers I needed in stock. Ended up ordering them from one of the BB stores online. Waited 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, then got an email that they still were not going to ship. A quick search on the internet brought me to SuperBreakers web site. I found the breakers I needed and they both showed in stock. I didn't believe it so I called and confirmed they were indeed in stock and ready to ship. I ordered them and they arrived at my house 3 days later. Very happy with the customer service and product was exactly what I expected.
