Product FAQs
6 answers
How is the QC3020H circuit breaker mounted in a control panel?
This Quicklag breaker uses a cable-in/cable-out panel mount configuration. It can be secured to a backpan using a compatible Eaton mounting base plate, or it can be adapted for DIN rail installation using a separate mounting clip.
Which mounting base plates work with this 3-pole QC breaker?
It is compatible with Eaton Quicklag QC mounting base plates, such as the QC6BP, which provides a secure cable-in/cable-out connection point for up to six poles in commercial enclosures.
Is this breaker suitable for direct current (DC) control circuits?
Yes, the QC3020H is rated for DC applications. It provides an interrupting capacity of 3.8kA at 62.5VDC, making it suitable for specific industrial control panels requiring DC circuit protection.
What are the wire gauge requirements for the QC3020H terminals?
The breaker accepts 14 AWG to 10 AWG wire. Both aluminum and copper conductors are supported, providing flexibility for various panel wiring requirements.
Will this breaker replace an older Cutler-Hammer QC3020H?
Yes. Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer, and the Quicklag QC series continues under the Eaton brand. A new Eaton QC3020H is a direct, exact replacement for a legacy Cutler-Hammer breaker with the same catalog number.
Are the thermal and magnetic trip settings adjustable on this model?
No, this breaker features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the Long-Time (thermal) and Instantaneous (magnetic) protection functions are factory set and non-interchangeable.

My experience was great. I had the item quickly; and it was more reasonably priced than other places I checked. Not having to pay freight was an absolute bonus.
