The Square D QBA32125 is a 3-pole, 125A molded case circuit breaker designed for commercial and industrial power distribution. It features a thermal-magnetic trip unit that provides fixed long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection. This Q-Frame breaker installs into Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It serves as a drop-in replacement for the legacy Q23125 and is an alternative to QDA32125 models. Operating at 240VAC, it delivers a 10kAIC rating and includes a Visi-Trip indicator.
Which panelboards are compatible with the Square D QBA32125 breaker?
The QBA32125 features an I-Line plug-on configuration on the line side and is designed exclusively for installation in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards.
What is the recommended terminal torque for the load lugs on the QBA32125?
The factory-installed load lugs on this 125A Q-frame breaker require a tightening torque of 248 lb-in (28 N.m) for both aluminum and copper conductors.
What are the magnetic trip settings for the QBA32125?
This thermal-magnetic circuit breaker features a fixed magnetic hold current of 1200A and a magnetic tripping current of 2400A.
Is the QBA32125 breaker rated for 100 percent continuous load?
No, standard PowerPacT Q-frame breakers, including the QBA32125, carry an 80 percent continuous current rating.
Does the QBA32125 replace any legacy Square D circuit breakers?
Yes, PowerPacT Q-frame circuit breakers serve as direct replacements for older Square D Q2 series breakers previously used in I-Line panels.
Are there direct replacements for the QBA32125 with higher interrupting capacity?
Yes. If your application requires a higher fault rating than the 10kAIC provided by the QBA32125, you can use the QDA32125 (25kAIC), QGA32125 (65kAIC), or QJA32125 (100kAIC). These variants share the exact same physical footprint and I-Line mounting.
