Description

Engineered for high-density applications, the Eaton BQ2402115 is a quadplex breaker. It supplies two 15A outer circuits and a 40A two-pole center circuit to expand panel capacity. This component mounts into Eaton BR, Bryant, Westinghouse, and Challenger load centers. It features a plug-on connection and replaces the BRD2402115. Rated 10kAIC at 120/240VAC, it offers robust defense against overloads. The independent trip guarantees a tripped outer pole will not disrupt the center circuit.

Product FAQs

7 answers
How many panel spaces does the BQ2402115 require?

This quadplex breaker provides four poles of protection but only requires two standard 1-inch spaces in the load center.

Which poles correspond to the 15A and 40A circuits?

The two outer poles provide the independent 15A single-pole circuits, while the two center poles provide the 40A two-pole circuit.

How does the independent trip function work on this breaker?

The outer 15A single-pole circuits operate independently from the inner 40A two-pole circuit. A fault or overload on one of the 15A outer poles will not cause the 40A center circuit to trip.

Does the BQ2402115 require a notched bus bar for installation?

Yes. This is a CTL (Circuit Total Limiting) breaker equipped with a rejection clip. It will only seat properly in panel positions that have notched bus bars designed to accept tandem or quadplex breakers.

What is the difference between the BQ2402115 and the BRD2402115?

The BQ2402115 is a CTL breaker with a rejection clip, requiring a notched bus bar. The BRD2402115 is a non-CTL breaker without a rejection clip, designed for older panels that do not restrict tandem breaker placement.

Is this breaker suitable for HVAC equipment?

Yes, Eaton BQ quadplex breakers are HACR rated, making them suitable for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications.

Can this breaker be installed in Siemens or Square D panels?

No. The BQ2402115 is strictly UL listed for Eaton BR, Bryant, Westinghouse, and Challenger load centers. Installing it in unapproved panels violates UL listings and safety standards.
