Product FAQs
4 answersCan the Q2L3225 be installed in modern Square D panelboards?
The Q2L3225 is a legacy Q-Frame breaker primarily designed for older NQOD panelboards, switchboards, and individual enclosures. It is not designed to plug into modern NQ or NF series panelboards.
What is the modern replacement for the legacy Q2L3225 circuit breaker?
The direct modern replacement for this legacy Q-Frame breaker is the PowerPact QBL32225. However, installing the exact Q2L3225 preserves the original UL listing of legacy NQOD panels without requiring field modifications.
How does a feed-thru Q2L breaker mount inside an enclosure?
As a unit-mount, feed-thru circuit breaker, the Q2L3225 bolts directly to the mounting pan or enclosure backplate using mounting screws. It does not plug onto a panelboard busbar like standard branch breakers.
Can the Q2L3225 be used as a main breaker in NQOD panels?
Yes, Q2L frame breakers are frequently utilized as main breakers in NQOD panelboards. This requires the appropriate main breaker add-on kit to adapt the unit-mount breaker to the panel interior.
