Product FAQs
6 answersWhat is the ground fault trip threshold for the QPGFEP1015?
This breaker features a 30mA trip sensitivity. As a Ground Fault Equipment Protector (GFEP), it is designed to prevent equipment damage rather than providing the 5mA personnel protection of a Class A GFCI.
Are Cutler-Hammer and Eaton QPGFEP1015 breakers interchangeable?
Yes. Eaton manufactures these breakers under both the Eaton and Cutler-Hammer brand names. The QPGFEP1015 catalog number represents the exact same physical and electrical component regardless of which logo is printed on the label.
How do I wire the neutral connection on the QPGFEP1015?
This breaker is equipped with a pigtail neutral. The coiled white pigtail wire must be routed and terminated directly to the panelboard neutral bus to power the internal ground fault sensing circuitry.
Will this breaker fit in a standard residential load center?
No. The QPGFEP1015 is a Quicklag plug-on breaker designed specifically for Eaton Quicklag industrial and commercial panelboards. It is not compatible with standard BR or CH residential load centers.
Can the QPGFEP1015 replace a standard 1-pole Quicklag QP breaker?
Yes, provided the circuit requires 30mA equipment protection. It utilizes the same plug-on mounting footprint as standard Quicklag QP breakers, allowing for direct replacement in compatible panelboards.
Is the QPGFEP1015 suitable for protecting personnel in wet locations?
No. This is a Ground Fault Equipment Protector (GFEP) with a 30mA trip threshold. Circuits requiring personnel protection, such as those near water, require a Class A GFCI breaker with a 5mA trip threshold.
