Rated for 25 amps, the Square D QOB225EPD is a 2-pole equipment protection device. It utilizes a 30mA ground fault threshold to protect machinery in commercial facilities. This unit mounts securely into Square D NQ and NQOD panelboards via a reliable bolt-on connection. Pressure plate terminals accept 14-8 AWG aluminum or copper wiring. Operating at 120/240VAC with a 10kAIC capacity, it combines long-time and instantaneous trip functions. The Visi-Trip indicator simplifies maintenance.
Can I install the QOB225EPD in a standard Square D QO load center?
No. The QOB225EPD is a bolt-on circuit breaker designed specifically for Square D NQ and NQOD panelboards. Standard QO load centers require plug-on QO breakers.
What does EPD mean, and how does it differ from a standard GFCI breaker?
EPD stands for Equipment Protection Device. The QOB225EPD has a 30mA ground fault trip threshold designed to protect equipment, such as heat trace cables or well pumps, from damage. It is not designed for personnel protection, which requires a 5mA Class A GFCI breaker.
What is the recommended terminal torque for the QOB225EPD?
The wire binding screws on this 25A QOB breaker should be torqued to 36 lb-in (4 N.m) for both aluminum and copper wiring.
How is the pigtail neutral on the QOB225EPD connected?
The white pigtail wire must be connected directly to the panelboard neutral bar. This connection is required to power the breaker internal ground fault sensing circuitry.
How can I tell if the QOB225EPD has tripped due to a fault?
This breaker features the Square D Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips, the handle moves to the center position and a highly visible red flag appears in the indicator window.
Does the QOB225EPD include a push-to-test feature?
Yes, this equipment protection device includes a built-in test button. Pressing the button simulates a ground fault to verify the 30mA sensing circuitry and mechanical trip mechanism are functioning properly.

Customers say these electrical breakers arrive exactly as ordered and work perfectly for their intended applications. They consistently praise the competitive pricing, which many report is significantly lower than local suppliers. Fast shipping and prompt delivery are frequently highlighted, with many receiving orders within days or even next-day delivery for urgent needs. The breakers arrive well-packaged and in excellent condition. Many reviews emphasize the company's extensive inventory availability, particularly for hard-to-find breakers. One customer experienced difficulty with order cancellation and was charged a restocking fee, which caused dissatisfaction.

Great Price!
Great price. Fast delivery. My local electric distributor wanted double for the same breaker, so it was a no brainer to order this one. Ordered another one since with the same great service.
