Product FAQs
7 answers
What type of wire connections does the QCR1020T use?
The T suffix indicates this breaker is equipped with stud and tapped pad terminals. It includes #10-32 terminal screws, making it suitable for line and load side ring or spade lug connections.
How is the Eaton QCR1020T circuit breaker mounted?
This breaker features a rear mounting design equipped with a spring-loaded release, allowing it to snap directly onto standard 35mm DIN rails. It is commonly used in OEM control panels and telecom power systems.
How much space does the QCR1020T require on a DIN rail?
This single-pole breaker features a compact 1/2-inch wide profile, which helps save valuable space inside control panels and equipment enclosures.
Is the QCR1020T rated for switching fluorescent lighting loads?
Yes, this 20-amp Quicklag breaker is switching duty rated (SWD), meaning it can be safely used to switch fluorescent lighting circuits on and off on a regular basis.
Can this breaker be used for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment?
Yes, Eaton Quicklag miniature circuit breakers in this amperage range are HACR rated for use with compatible HVAC and refrigeration equipment.
Can the QCR1020T be used in DC power systems?
