Engineered for commercial use, the Square D Q1B370 is a 3-pole, 70A molded case circuit breaker. It features a thermal-magnetic trip unit to protect electrical systems against overloads and short circuits. This bolt-on breaker fits legacy Square D NQO and NQOB panelboards. For modern upgrades, it is replaced by the QOB370, which requires an SK5668 mounting kit for proper installation. Rated 10kAIC at 240VAC, it includes a Visi-Trip indicator for quick fault identification.
Which panelboards are compatible with the Q1B370 circuit breaker?
This breaker is designed specifically for installation in legacy Square D NQO and NQOB panelboards.
What is the modern replacement for the legacy Q1B370?
The modern equivalent is the Square D QOB370. However, upgrading from a Q1B to a QOB breaker requires an SK5668 mounting bracket for proper fitment. Sourcing an exact Q1B370 replacement allows for direct installation without retrofit kits.
What wire gauge is supported by the terminals on this breaker?
The integrated box lugs accept wire sizes ranging from 8 AWG to 2 AWG.
What type of protection does the LI trip function provide?
The LI code indicates a thermal-magnetic trip unit featuring Long-Time overload protection and Instantaneous short circuit protection. Both the thermal and magnetic trip points are fixed on this model.
How is the Q1B370 secured to the panelboard?
This is a bolt-on circuit breaker that fastens directly to the panelboard bus with screws, providing a secure mechanical and electrical connection compared to plug-on alternatives.
