Providing reliable 20A ground-fault protection, this single-pole breaker integrates Class A 6mA safety with standard thermal-magnetic trip technology. It is an essential component for meeting NEC code requirements in wet, damp, or outdoor locations across residential and commercial facilities. The unit mounts into Square D QO load centers and NQ panelboards using a plug-on configuration and a pigtail neutral wire. It features a 10kAIC rating at 120VAC and the signature Visi-Trip indicator.
Can I install the QO120GFI in a Square D Homeline panel?
No. The QO120GFI is designed exclusively for Square D QO load centers and NQ panelboards. Homeline panels utilize a different bus bar design and require HOM series breakers.
Does the QO120GFI require a plug-on neutral load center?
No. This breaker features a factory-installed pigtail wire that connects directly to the panel neutral bar, making it compatible with standard, non-plug-on neutral QO panels.
How is the branch circuit wired to the QO120GFI?
The load hot wire and load neutral wire from your branch circuit both connect directly to the breaker terminals. The breaker's coiled white pigtail wire is then connected to the panel neutral bus bar.
What is the difference between QO120GFI and QO120GFIC?
Both catalog numbers refer to the exact same 20A GFCI circuit breaker. The "C" suffix on the QO120GFIC simply indicates that the item comes in retail clamshell packaging.
Is the QO120GFI a Class A ground-fault breaker?
Yes. It provides Class A ground-fault protection, meaning it is calibrated to trip when a ground fault of 6 milliamps or higher is detected, which is necessary for personnel protection in wet or damp locations.
Does this breaker provide arc-fault protection?
No. The QO120GFI is strictly a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). If NEC code requires both AFCI and GFCI protection for a specific circuit, a dual-function breaker like the QO120DFC is required instead.
How does the Visi-Trip indicator work on the QO120GFI?
When the breaker trips due to an overload, short circuit, or ground fault, the handle moves to a center position and a bright red indicator appears in the breaker face, allowing for rapid identification of the tripped circuit.
Can I use the QO120GFI in an NQ panelboard?
Yes. This plug-on breaker is compatible with Square D NQ panelboards. It snaps directly onto the panel bus, but the pigtail neutral must be routed and secured to the panel neutral bar.
