Part of the PowerPacT Q-Frame series, the Square D QDL22100 is a 2-pole, 100A MCCB. It delivers thermal-magnetic protection with fixed LI trip functions. Equipped with line and load lugs, this unit mount breaker fits into Square D NQ panelboards, switchboards, and enclosures, serving as a substitute for legacy Q2L2100 breakers. Operating at 240VAC, this 80% rated breaker provides a 25kAIC interrupt rating. The QDL designation indicates its standard interrupting capacity and unit mount design.
What panelboards accept the QDL22100 circuit breaker?
This PowerPacT Q-frame breaker is commonly used as a main or sub-feed breaker in Square D NQ panelboards. It can also be installed in Square D switchboards and individual enclosures.
What does a feed-thru connection mean for this Q-frame breaker?
A feed-thru connection indicates that the breaker is unit-mounted and comes equipped with box lugs on both the line and load sides, rather than plugging onto a bus or bolting into an I-Line panel.
