Description
Maximizing available panel space, the BQC230240 combines a 30A 2-pole circuit and a 40A 2-pole circuit into a single four-pole, two-inch wide housing. Both circuits utilize common trip mechanisms to safely disconnect multi-wire branch circuits simultaneously. Engineered with a rejection tab, this Class CTL plug-on breaker mounts securely into Eaton Type BR load centers equipped with notched bus stabs. It is rated for 10 kAIC at 120/240V, making it ideal for residential and commercial upgrades.Specifications
