Product FAQs

7 answers
What panelboards are compatible with the QGA221751 circuit breaker?

This breaker is designed exclusively for use in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It features an I-Line plug-on connection for the line side and mechanical lugs on the load side.

What does the "G" in the QGA221751 catalog number signify?

The "G" indicates the interrupting rating of the breaker. For Square D PowerPacT Q-Frame breakers, the G rating provides a 65kA interrupting capacity at 240VAC.

What does the "1" at the end of the QGA221751 part number mean?

The "1" suffix indicates the phase connection of the breaker. For this 2-pole I-Line breaker, it specifies an AB phase connection.

How much mounting space does the QGA221751 require in an I-Line panel?

This 2-pole Q-Frame breaker requires 3 inches of mounting space, as each pole utilizes 1.5 inches of space on the I-Line bus.

What is the recommended tightening torque for the load side lugs on the QGA221751?

The load side lugs should be torqued to 247.8 lb-in (28 N.m) for the supported 4 AWG to 300 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors.

What is the difference between the QGA221751 and the QJA221751?

The difference is the interrupting rating. The QGA221751 has a 65kAIC rating at 240VAC, while the QJA221751 has a higher 100kAIC rating at 240VAC. Both are 175A, 2-pole I-Line breakers with an AB phase connection.

Can I use the QGA221751 to replace a QDA221751 or QBA221751?

Yes, the QGA221751 shares the same physical dimensions and mounting style, but offers a higher interrupting rating (65kAIC) compared to the QDA (25kAIC) and QBA (10kAIC) models. It is a direct, higher-rated replacement.
