Engineered for demanding electrical systems, the Square D QO240GF supplies 40A of power alongside critical ground-fault protection. It is ideal for residential and commercial applications requiring dedicated GFCI safety. This plug-on breaker mounts into QO load centers and NQ panelboards. As a legacy model superseded by the QO240GFI, it serves as an exact-match replacement. Rated 10 kAIC at 120/240V, it features a pigtail neutral, HACR rating, and the Visi-Trip visual indicator.
Can I install the QO240GF in a Square D Homeline load center?
No. The QO240GF is designed exclusively for Square D QO load centers and NQ panelboards. Homeline panels have a different bus bar design and require HOM series breakers.
Does this breaker feature a plug-on neutral or a pigtail neutral connection?
The QO240GF is a pigtail neutral circuit breaker. The attached white pigtail wire must be connected directly to the neutral bus bar in your panel to ensure proper ground fault protection.
What is the ground fault trip threshold for this circuit breaker?
This breaker provides Class A GFCI protection, which is designed to trip when a ground fault exceeds 6 milliamperes (mA).
What does the HF rating on this GFCI breaker mean?
The HF (High Frequency) rating indicates the breaker is optimized for equipment utilizing power conversion technology, such as HVAC systems, pool pumps, and EV chargers. This rating helps reduce nuisance tripping in those applications.
Is there a Plug-On Neutral version of this 40A GFCI breaker?
Yes. If your QO load center supports Plug-On Neutral breakers and you prefer to avoid wiring a pigtail, you can use catalog number QO240PGF instead.
Are the QO240GF and QO240GFI the same circuit breaker?
Yes. The QO240GF and QO240GFI are exact match equivalents. Square D often uses the GFI suffix on newer packaging, but both catalog numbers represent the same 40A, 2 pole pigtail neutral GFCI breaker.
