Product FAQs
8 answersWhat panelboards accept the QOB225VH?
It is designed for use in Square D NQ and legacy NQOD panelboards. It bolts directly to the busbar, providing a secure connection for commercial and industrial applications.
Can I use a QOB225VH in a standard QO load center?
No. The QOB225VH is a bolt-on breaker and will not fit in a standard QO load center, which requires plug-on breakers. It must be installed in a panelboard equipped with a bolt-on busbar.
What does the VH in QOB225VH signify?
The VH designates a very high interrupting rating. This breaker provides 22kAIC at 120/240VAC, compared to the standard QOB version which offers a 10kAIC rating.
How is the QOB225VH secured to the panelboard?
It features a bolt-on connection. The breaker mounts directly to the panelboard busbar using built-in screws, ensuring a tight, vibration-resistant connection suitable for high-demand environments.
What type of wire terminals does this breaker use?
It is equipped with pressure plate terminals that accept 14 AWG to 8 AWG aluminum or copper wire. Ensure proper torque specifications are met during installation as outlined by Schneider Electric.
Does this breaker include Visi-Trip technology?
Yes, like most QO and QOB breakers, it features the Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips, a highly visible red indicator appears in the window, allowing electricians to quickly identify the faulted circuit.
Can the QOB225VH replace a standard QOB225?
Yes, the QOB225VH can replace a standard QOB225. It shares the same physical dimensions but provides an upgraded 22kAIC interrupting rating, which exceeds the 10kAIC rating of the standard model.
Is this breaker suitable for HACR applications?
Yes, Square D QOB miniature circuit breakers are HACR rated, making them suitable for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
