Product FAQs
8 answersHow many panel spaces does the BQC2402130 require?
This quadplex breaker requires two adjacent 1-inch spaces in a compatible load center, allowing you to add four poles of protection without upgrading to a larger panel.
What is the circuit configuration of this quadplex breaker?
The BQC2402130 provides one 2-pole 40A circuit, typically located on the center poles for 240V applications, and two independent 1-pole 30A circuits on the outer poles for 120V applications.
Which load centers are compatible with the BQC2402130?
It is designed exclusively for Eaton and legacy Cutler-Hammer Type BR load centers. The panel must have slots approved for tandem or quadplex breakers.
Does the BQC2402130 include a rejection tab?
Yes. As a Class CTL breaker, it features a rejection tab on the mounting foot. It will only seat properly in panel slots specifically notched to accept CTL tandem or quadplex breakers.
What wire sizes are compatible with the BQC2402130?
The box lugs on this breaker accept 14 AWG to 4 AWG copper or aluminum wiring.
Is the BQC2402130 HACR rated?
Yes, Eaton BQC quadplex circuit breakers are HACR rated, making them suitable for protecting heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment circuits.
What is the difference between Eaton BQC and BQ quadplex breakers?
Type BQC breakers are Class CTL and include a rejection tab to prevent overloading in newer panels. Type BQ breakers are non-CTL, lacking the rejection tab, and are intended for older panels manufactured before CTL requirements.
What trip functions are included on the BQC2402130?
This thermal-magnetic breaker features fixed Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) trip functions to protect against both sustained overloads and sudden short circuits.
