Product FAQs

8 answers
Which panelboards accept the QDA32175 circuit breaker?

This breaker is specifically designed for use in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It connects to the bus via an I-Line plug-in jaw on the line side and uses mechanical lugs on the load side.

Can the QDA32175 replace older Q2 series breakers?

Yes, PowerPact Q-frame circuit breakers serve as direct replacements for older Square D Q2 series devices installed in existing I-Line panels.

How much mounting space does this 3-pole Q-Frame breaker require in an I-Line panel?

It requires 4.5 inches of total mounting bus space. Each pole takes up 1.5 inches of width in an I-Line panelboard or switchboard.

What is the required tightening torque for the load lugs?

The load side mechanical lugs accept 4 AWG to 300 kcmil aluminum or copper wire and require a tightening torque of 248 lb-in (28 N.m).

What does the letter D in the QDA32175 catalog number signify?

The D indicates the specific short-circuit interrupting rating of the frame. For the PowerPact Q-frame series, the D-rating provides a 25kAIC capacity at 240VAC.

How does this breaker compare to the QBA, QGA, and QJA versions?

They share the exact same physical footprint and thermal-magnetic trip characteristics but differ in interrupting capacity. The QBA is rated for 10kAIC, the QDA for 25kAIC, the QGA for 65kAIC, and the QJA for 100kAIC at 240VAC.

Is there a unit-mount equivalent for the QDA32175?

Yes, if you need a unit-mount version with mechanical lugs on both the line and load ends instead of the I-Line plug-in connection, the correct equivalent catalog number is QDL32175.

Does the QDA32175 include a push-to-trip button?

Yes, all PowerPact Q-frame circuit breakers feature an integral push-to-trip button on the front cover. This allows you to manually trip the breaker to verify the mechanical operation of the trip unit before or after installation.
