Engineered for commercial and industrial safety, the QOB240GF provides ground-fault and overcurrent protection on 120/240VAC systems. This 2-pole, 40A breaker safeguards personnel in demanding environments. It utilizes a bolt-on mounting style for a secure connection within Square D NQ and NQOD panelboards. While replaced by the QOB240GFI, it is a direct fit for existing setups. The unit delivers a 10kAIC rating and includes a Visi-Trip indicator to easily spot tripped circuits.
Which panelboards are compatible with the QOB240GF circuit breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is designed for use in Square D NQ and NQOD panelboards. Unlike QO series breakers, the QOB series features a bolt-on connection and will not fit in standard QO residential load centers.
Is there a plug-on equivalent to the QOB240GF?
Yes, the QO240GFI is the plug-on equivalent. While the QOB240GF uses a bolt-on connection for NQ and NQOD commercial panelboards, the QO240GFI is designed for standard QO load centers.
What is the ground fault trip threshold for this breaker?
This breaker delivers Class A ground fault protection. It is engineered to trip when a ground fault of 6mA is detected, providing personnel protection in wet or damp locations.
How is the neutral connected on the QOB240GF?
This breaker includes a factory-installed pigtail neutral wire. It must be routed and connected directly to the neutral bar in the panelboard for the ground fault detection circuitry to function properly.
What wire sizes are accepted by the box lugs on this breaker?
The terminals accommodate 8 AWG to 2 AWG aluminum or copper conductors. Always ensure connections are torqued to the manufacturer specifications printed on the breaker label.
How can you identify if the QOB240GF has tripped?
This breaker features the signature Square D Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips due to an overload, short circuit, or ground fault, a red indicator flag appears in the window to help quickly identify the faulted circuit.

One customer experienced difficulty with order cancellation and was charged a restocking fee, which caused dissatisfaction.
