Product FAQs

7 answers
How many panel spaces does the QO3100 require?

As a 3-pole miniature circuit breaker, it requires three standard 0.75-inch spaces, occupying a total width of 2.25 inches on the panel bus.

Is there a bolt-on version of this 100A breaker?

Yes. If your commercial panelboard requires bolt-on connections instead of plug-on, you will need to source catalog number QOB3100.

Can I install this breaker in an NQ or NQOD commercial panelboard?

Yes, the QO3100 is compatible with both NQ and NQOD panel interiors. However, many commercial panels specify bolt-on breakers, so verify whether your specific enclosure requires this plug-on model or the bolt-on QOB3100 counterpart.

Can I use this 3-pole breaker on a 208Y/120V three-phase system?

Yes, the 120/240VAC voltage rating allows the QO3100 to be safely applied on standard 208Y/120V, 3-phase, 4-wire grounded wye systems.

What does the LI trip function mean for this breaker?

The LI designation indicates that the breaker uses a thermal-magnetic mechanism to provide Long-Time (L) protection for slow thermal overloads and Instantaneous (I) protection for immediate short-circuit clearing.

Are the terminal lugs rated for aluminum wire?

Yes, the factory box lugs accept both aluminum and copper conductors ranging from 4 AWG to 2/0 AWG. When terminating aluminum wire, always apply a listed joint compound to prevent oxidation.

Does the QO3100 provide ground fault protection?

No, this is a standard thermal-magnetic circuit breaker offering only standard overload and short-circuit protection. It does not include GFCI, EPB, or AFCI capabilities.
