Product FAQs

7 answers
What panelboards are compatible with the QGA32080 circuit breaker?

This breaker is designed exclusively for Square D I-Line panelboards, including the HCN, HCM, HCW, and HCWM series, as well as I-Line switchboards.

How does the QGA32080 connect to the electrical panel?

It utilizes an I-Line plug-on connection for the line side, which snaps directly onto the panel bus, and features mechanical lugs on the load side for wire terminations.

What is the recommended lug torque for the load side terminals?

The load side mechanical lugs should be torqued to 248 lb-in (28 N.m) when using 4 AWG to 300 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors.

Can this PowerPacT Q-Frame breaker replace older legacy models?

Yes, the PowerPacT Q-Frame line is a direct replacement for legacy Square D Q2 Series circuit breakers.

What does the G in the QGA part number signify?

In the Square D PowerPacT Q-Frame nomenclature, the G indicates the interrupting capacity. A QG breaker provides a 65kAIC rating at 240VAC, whereas other letters like B, D, or J indicate different short circuit ratings.

What phase configuration does the I-Line connection use?

By default, this 3-pole breaker features a standard ABC phase jaw configuration for mounting onto the I-Line bus.

Can the operating handle be locked out for maintenance?

Yes, a field-installable handle padlock attachment is available for locking the breaker in the ON or OFF position to support safety procedures.
