Product FAQs

6 answers
What type of panelboards will accept the QJA32225 breaker?

This I-Line molded case circuit breaker is engineered exclusively for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It is not compatible with NQ, NF, or QO series load centers.

Which older Square D breakers does the PowerPacT QJA32225 replace?

The PowerPacT Q-Frame series serves as a direct replacement for legacy Square D Q2 Series breakers. The QJA32225 can replace older 225A, 3-pole Q2-frame breakers requiring a 100kA short-circuit current rating.

How do the line and load connections differ on this breaker?

The line side features Square D I-Line plug-on connections that press directly onto the panelboard bus assembly. The load side utilizes standard mechanical lugs that accept 4 AWG to 300 kcmil aluminum or copper wire.

Is the QJA32225 rated for 480V applications?

No. This PowerPacT Q-Frame breaker has a maximum voltage rating of 240VAC. It is strictly for 208Y/120VAC or 240VAC 3-phase systems requiring a high 100kAIC rating.

What does the letter J indicate in the QJA32225 catalog number?

In Square D nomenclature, the J indicates the interrupting rating tier. A QJA breaker provides a 100kA interrupting capacity at 240VAC, which is the highest short-circuit rating available in the PowerPacT Q-Frame family.

How can I verify the mechanical operation of the QJA32225?

PowerPacT Q-Frame breakers feature an integrated push-to-trip button on the front cover. This allows electricians to manually test the mechanical trip linkage without exposing the circuit to an actual fault condition.
