Designed for Eaton's BR family, the BQ215230 quadplex miniature breaker maximizes wiring capacity. By combining a 15A two-pole and a 30A two-pole circuit, it doubles circuit density compared to standard breakers. Engineered for plug-on mounting, it installs into Eaton Type BR panelboards requiring two 1-inch spaces. It serves as a direct replacement for older Cutler-Hammer BQ215230 models. Rated 10 kAIC, it features thermal-magnetic trip technology and is HACR rated for HVAC equipment.Specifications

Product FAQs
6 answersIs the Eaton BQ215230 a CTL or non-CTL circuit breaker?
The BQ215230 is a CTL (Circuit Total Limiting) breaker. It includes a physical rejection tab and must be installed in Type BR load centers specifically notched to accept tandem or quadplex breakers.
How much panel space does the BQ215230 quadplex breaker require?
This quadplex breaker requires two standard 1-inch spaces in a compatible Eaton or Cutler-Hammer Type BR load center.
How are the 15A and 30A circuits configured on this breaker?
The BQ215230 features a 15A 2-pole circuit on the outer poles and a 30A 2-pole circuit on the center poles. Both circuits feature independent trip functions.
What is the difference between the BQ215230 and BQC215230?
The BQ215230 features independent trip on both the 15A and 30A circuits. The BQC215230 is the common trip version, which is typically required for 240V circuits supplying a single load.
Can the BQ215230 replace older Bryant or Westinghouse quad breakers?
Yes, Eaton manufactures the BR line as a direct replacement for legacy Cutler-Hammer, Bryant, Westinghouse, and Challenger Type BR circuit breakers.
Is the Eaton BQ215230 rated for HVAC equipment?
Yes, Eaton Type BQ quadplex circuit breakers carry a listing for HACR (Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration) applications.
