Engineered for commercial and industrial applications, the Square D QO330-1021 is a 30A, three-pole miniature circuit breaker equipped with a factory-installed 120/240V shunt trip. It installs into standard Square D QO load centers, as well as NQ and NQOD panelboards. The plug-on mounting design ensures a secure, efficient connection. Rated for 10kAIC at 240V, this thermal-magnetic breaker features the exclusive Visi-Trip indicator to easily identify tripped circuits and is HACR rated.
What does the -1021 suffix indicate on the QO330-1021?
The -1021 catalog number suffix denotes a factory-installed 120/240VAC shunt trip. This allows the breaker to be tripped remotely by applying voltage to the shunt trip coil, which is commonly used for emergency stops or automated control systems.
What type of panels will accept the QO330-1021 breaker?
This plug-on breaker is compatible with Square D QO load centers, as well as commercial NQ and legacy NQOD panelboards. It requires three full spaces on the busbar for installation.
What are the wiring requirements for the terminals on this breaker?
The pressure plate terminals are rated for both aluminum and copper conductors, accepting wire sizes from 14 AWG up to 8 AWG. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation as labeled on the breaker.
Is the QO330-1021 suitable for direct current (DC) circuits?
Yes, in addition to its standard AC ratings, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for 48VDC applications with a 5kA interrupting capacity. This makes it suitable for specific low-voltage control or battery circuits.
How can I tell if the QO330-1021 has tripped?
This breaker includes the Square D Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips due to an overload or short circuit, the handle moves to a center position and a highly visible red indicator appears, making it easy to identify the tripped circuit in a crowded panel.
Is this breaker suitable for HVAC equipment?
Yes, the QO330-1021 is HACR rated. This means it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires a 30A, 3-pole circuit.
