What legacy Square D circuit breaker does the QDM32100TN replace?
The QDM32100TN provides a direct upgrade path for discontinued Q2 series devices, replacing legacy Q23100 breakers in existing panelboards and metering equipment.
What does the TN suffix indicate on this Q-frame breaker?
The TN suffix specifies the terminal arrangement. It indicates that the breaker has factory-installed mounting studs on the OFF (load) end without nuts or washers, designed for bus-connected applications.
What does the M in the QDM32100TN catalog number mean for installation?
The M indicates the lug configuration. It means the breaker is equipped with mechanical box lugs on the ON (line) end only, while the OFF end uses stud connections.
Which Square D enclosures and equipment are compatible with this breaker?
This unit-mount breaker is designed for installation in Square D EZ Meter-Pak meter centers, metering equipment, switchboards, and compatible NQ or NQOD panelboards.
Which terminals accept the 4 AWG to 300 kcmil wire range?
Because this breaker features a stud connection on the load side, only the mechanical box lugs on the ON (line) side accept the specified 4 AWG to 300 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors.
Does this breaker provide adjustable trip settings?
No. It features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit with non-interchangeable Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) protection functions.
