Product FAQs

6 answers
Can I install the HOM270 in a Square D QO or Siemens panel?

No. The HOM270 is exclusively designed for use in Square D Homeline load centers. It is not interchangeable with QO series breakers or other manufacturer panels.

How many panel spaces does the HOM270 require?

This 2-pole breaker requires two standard 1-inch spaces in a Homeline load center.

What is the recommended tightening torque for the box lugs on this breaker?

The box lugs should be torqued to 40.7 lbf-in (4.6 N-m) when using 8 to 2 AWG aluminum or copper wire.

Is the HOM270 HACR rated for use with HVAC equipment?

Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, making it suitable for group motor applications like heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.

Does this breaker provide GFCI or AFCI protection?

No, the HOM270 is a standard thermal-magnetic circuit breaker. It provides overload and short-circuit protection but does not include ground-fault or arc-fault circuitry.

What is the difference between the HOM270 and HOM270CP?

They are the exact same breaker. The CP suffix simply indicates commercial packaging for retail display, while the standard HOM270 is typically sold uncarded for contractor use.
