Designed for remote control applications, the Square D Q1360-1021 is a 3-pole, 60A molded case circuit breaker. It utilizes thermal-magnetic trip technology to protect commercial and industrial distribution networks at 240VAC. This plug-on breaker is built specifically for Square D Q1 panelboards. While it serves as a reliable maintenance component for older Q-Frame systems, it has been superseded by the QO3601021 for modern panel upgrades and replacements.

Product FAQs
5 answers
What does the -1021 suffix indicate on the Q1360-1021 catalog number?
The -1021 suffix indicates that the circuit breaker is equipped with a factory-installed 120/240V AC shunt trip. This allows the breaker to be opened remotely via an external control circuit.
Can I install the Q1360-1021 in a standard Square D QO load center?
No. This plug-on breaker is specifically designed for legacy Square D Q1 panelboards. It features a different physical footprint and mounting configuration than standard QO or Homeline breakers.
What is required to activate the shunt trip feature on the Q1360-1021?
The factory-installed shunt trip requires an external 120/240V AC control signal. When voltage is applied to the shunt trip circuit from a remote switch or relay, it mechanically forces the breaker to open.
How does the LI trip function operate on this breaker?
The fixed thermal-magnetic mechanism provides LI (Long-Time, Instantaneous) protection. The thermal element provides long-time protection against gradual overloads, while the magnetic element provides instantaneous protection against short circuits.
Is the Q1360-1021 intended for new electrical installations?
The Square D Q1 series is a legacy frame type. This breaker is primarily used as a direct replacement or maintenance component to service existing Q1 panelboards.
