Built to maintain legacy electrical systems, the QFP150-2 is a 150A main breaker designed specifically for Zinsco load centers. It delivers reliable power distribution for aging properties. Featuring a standard plug-on mounting style, this two-pole breaker fits seamlessly into older Zinsco panels. It provides an exact physical match, often replaced today by the UBITBFP1502. The thermal-magnetic trip unit provides 10kAIC capacity at 120/240VAC and accommodates up to 300 kcmil wire.
What load centers are compatible with the QFP150-2 main breaker?
This breaker fits original Zinsco load centers, as well as older GTE Sylvania and Challenger panels that were manufactured using the Zinsco QFP design.
What is the modern Connecticut Electric replacement for the QFP150-2?
Connecticut Electric manufactures a direct, UL-listed replacement for this main breaker under the catalog number UBITBFP1502.
Are there safety issues associated with original Zinsco QFP breakers?
Yes. Legacy Zinsco panels and breakers have a documented history of failing to trip under overcurrent conditions and arcing or fusing to the aluminum bus bar. Due to these fire hazards, many licensed electricians recommend a complete panel upgrade rather than replacing individual components.
How does the QFP150-2 connect to the panel bus?
It utilizes a plug-on connection designed specifically for the unique bus bar configuration found in Zinsco, GTE Sylvania, and early Challenger load centers.
Can I use a standard Zinsco Type Q breaker instead of a QFP?
No. The QFP frame is specifically configured for main breaker applications. Standard Type Q breakers are designed for branch circuits and will not physically fit the main breaker slots in these load centers.

Great communication and customer service
Ordered QFP2200T breaker and paid to ship overnight. Reached out to company when breaker did not arrive on time. Although I did not get the breaker when expected, they did communicate the situation, refunded my shipping and expedited the breaker to me once it was ready for shipping. They handled the situation in the best possible way given the circumstances.
Would buy from them again.

Excellent service!
I needed an obsolete part. They had it and sent it. Turned out it was the wrong part. Their customer service made up for it. They sent the correct part overnight and also sent a free ups label to return the wrong part. Great service! Highly recommend. And the refurbished part looked like it was in great shape.
