Part of the QOB series, the Square D QOB230EPD1200 combines 30mA equipment ground-fault protection with a factory-installed 1A auxiliary switch. This two-pole, 30-amp breaker is rated for 10kAIC at 120/240VAC. The integrated auxiliary switch allows for remote status monitoring, making it ideal for automated industrial environments. This bolt-on breaker installs into Square D NQ and NQOD panelboards. It accepts 14-8 AWG copper wiring and features the Visi-Trip visual indicator.
Which panelboards are compatible with the QOB230EPD1200?
This bolt-on circuit breaker is designed exclusively for Square D NQ and NQOD panelboards. It cannot be installed in standard QO load centers, which require plug-on breakers.
What does the EPD designation mean on this breaker?
EPD stands for Equipment Protection Device. It provides 30mA Class B ground fault protection, which is designed to protect sensitive machinery and equipment from low-level ground faults, rather than providing the 5mA Class A protection required for personnel safety.
What does the 1200 suffix indicate on the QOB230EPD1200?
The 1200 suffix indicates that this breaker includes a factory-installed 1A auxiliary switch. This switch provides remote indication of the breaker's status for monitoring and control systems.
How is the neutral connection handled on this breaker?
This breaker features a pigtail neutral connection. The attached white pigtail wire must be connected directly to the panelboard's neutral bus bar to ensure the ground fault protection functions correctly.
Does this breaker include a Visi-Trip indicator?
Yes, it features the Square D Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips due to an overload, short circuit, or ground fault, a highly visible red indicator appears to help you quickly identify the tripped breaker in the panel.

Customers say these electrical breakers arrive exactly as ordered and work perfectly for their intended applications. They consistently praise the competitive pricing, which many report is significantly lower than local suppliers. Fast shipping and prompt delivery are frequently highlighted, with many receiving orders within days or even next-day delivery for urgent needs. The breakers arrive well-packaged and in excellent condition. Many reviews emphasize the company's extensive inventory availability, particularly for hard-to-find breakers. One customer experienced difficulty with order cancellation and was charged a restocking fee, which caused dissatisfaction.

Great Price!
Great price. Fast delivery. My local electric distributor wanted double for the same breaker, so it was a no brainer to order this one. Ordered another one since with the same great service.
