Product FAQs
4 answersWhat is the difference between the QPGFEP1030 and a standard GFCI breaker?
The QPGFEP1030 is a Ground Fault Equipment Protector (GFEP) with a 30mA trip threshold, designed to protect machinery and equipment from damaging ground faults. Standard GFCI breakers have a 5mA trip threshold and are required for personnel protection.
Can I use this GFEP breaker to meet NEC personnel protection requirements in wet areas?
No. Because the QPGFEP1030 has a 30mA sensitivity rating, it is strictly for equipment protection. Personnel protection in areas like bathrooms or kitchens requires a Class A GFCI breaker with a 5mA trip threshold.
Which panelboards are compatible with the QPGFEP1030 breaker?
This plug-on breaker is designed specifically for use in Eaton Quicklag panelboards. Always verify compatibility with your specific panelboard enclosure before installation.
How is the neutral connection handled on this breaker?
The QPGFEP1030 features a pigtail neutral wire. This pigtail must be securely connected to the panel neutral bar to power the internal ground fault monitoring circuitry.
