Product FAQs
5 answers
Does the QBA32175 replace older Square D circuit breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT Q-Frame circuit breaker line is designed as a direct replacement for legacy Square D Q2 series devices. It will mount directly into existing I-Line panelboards and switchboards.
How are the line and load connections configured on this breaker?
The line side features an I-Line plug-on jaw connection that mounts directly to the panel bus. The load side includes factory-installed mechanical lugs that accept 4 AWG to 300 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors.
What is the phase connection for the line side of this breaker?
This specific catalog number features a standard ABC phase jaw configuration for connecting to the I-Line bus.
Can the QBA32175 be installed in 480V electrical systems?
No, this breaker has a maximum system voltage rating of 240VAC and is not suitable for 480V or 600V distribution systems.
What are the cross-reference part numbers for higher interrupting ratings?
If your system requires a fault rating higher than 10kAIC at 240VAC, alternate PowerPacT Q-Frame breakers are available. The QDA32175 is rated for 25kAIC, and the QGA32175 is rated for 65kAIC at 240VAC.
