Part of the Quicklag family, this 15-amp single-pole breaker offers specialized SWD and HACR ratings for fluorescent lighting and air conditioning equipment. It fastens securely into Eaton, Westinghouse, and Bryant panelboards using standard bolt-on terminals. With a 10kA interrupting capacity, the thermal-magnetic unit ensures reliable commercial circuit defense and acts as a seamless cross-reference for legacy QB and BA models.
Is the Eaton BAB1015 the same as the Westinghouse BAB1015?
Yes. Eaton acquired the Westinghouse electrical distribution business and now manufactures the Quicklag BAB series. The Eaton BAB1015 is the direct, exact replacement for legacy Westinghouse and Cutler-Hammer BAB1015 breakers.
Which panelboards are compatible with the BAB1015 breaker?
This breaker is designed for commercial bolt-on panelboards. It fits Eaton and Cutler-Hammer Pow-R-Line 1a, 2a, 1X, and 2X series panelboards, as well as legacy Westinghouse and Bryant panels configured for BAB and QBHW type subchassis.
Is the 15A BAB1015 breaker SWD and HACR rated?
Yes. The BAB1015 carries an SWD (Switching Duty) rating for 120VAC fluorescent lighting applications, and an HACR rating, making it suitable for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment circuits.
Can I install the BAB1015 in a standard residential load center?
No. The BAB1015 features a bolt-on connection type intended for commercial panelboards. It will not fit in residential plug-on load centers, which typically require BR or CH style breakers.
Can I use the BAB1015 to replace a QBHW1015 breaker?
While they share the same physical dimensions and bolt-on mounting, the BAB1015 has a 10kAIC rating, whereas the QBHW1015 has a 22kAIC rating. You should only substitute the BAB1015 if the available fault current at the panel requires 10kAIC or less.

We placed our first order with superbreakers.com recently for a breaker we weren't able to acquire locally. I ordered the breaker way ahead of time because I've had issues with shipping for products purchased online in the past. The estimate for the item when I initially ordered was 3 days. Without adding an expedited shipping options, the breaker arrived the next day. We installed it this week, and so far so good. In my opinion, they sell quality parts and have excellent turn around time. Very impressed.
