Part of the PowerPacT Q-Frame series, the Square D QBA220704 MCCB handles robust power distribution in commercial and industrial facilities. It delivers dependable thermal-magnetic protection for demanding electrical loads. Engineered for seamless integration, this breaker mounts into Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It utilizes a BC phase connection and acts as a substitute for QDA220704 and legacy Q22070 models.
What panelboards accept the QBA220704 circuit breaker?
This PowerPacT Q-frame breaker is designed specifically for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It utilizes an I-Line plug-on connection for the line side and cannot be used in standard load centers or unit-mount applications.
What phase connection does the QBA220704 utilize?
This specific 2-pole breaker is configured for a BC phase connection on the I-Line bus.
Can the QBA220704 replace legacy Square D breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT Q-frame is a direct replacement for the obsolete Square D Q2 series. The QBA220704 directly replaces the legacy Q22070 model, provided a 10kAIC rating meets your system requirements.
How does the QBA220704 differ from the QDA220704?
Both are 70A, 2-pole I-Line breakers with a BC phase connection. The primary difference is the interrupting rating. The QBA220704 is rated at 10kAIC at 240VAC, while the QDA220704 provides a higher 25kAIC rating.
What wire sizes and materials are compatible with the load lugs?
The factory-installed load-side mechanical lugs accept either copper or aluminum conductors ranging from 4 AWG to 300 kcmil.
Does the QBA220704 require a separate mounting bracket?
No. The breaker features an integrated I-Line mounting bracket that plugs directly into the panelboard bus, eliminating the need for additional mounting hardware.
What type of protection does the trip unit provide?
The breaker uses a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit (LI). The thermal component provides long-time protection against overloads, while the magnetic component offers instantaneous protection against short circuits.
Is this breaker HACR rated for HVAC equipment?
Yes, the QBA220704 is HACR rated, making it suitable for protecting heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration circuits.
