Product FAQs
6 answers
Can I install the QOB260VH in a standard QO load center?
No. The QOB260VH is a bolt-on circuit breaker designed specifically for Square D NQ and NQOD panelboards. Standard QO load centers require plug-on QO circuit breakers.
What is the difference between the QOB260VH and the QO260VH?
The primary difference is the mounting type. The QOB260VH features a bolt-on connection for commercial NQ and NQOD panelboards, while the QO260VH is a plug-on breaker used in standard QO load centers. Both share the same 60A rating and 22kAIC interrupting capacity.
What does the VH designation mean on this circuit breaker?
The VH suffix indicates that the breaker has a high interrupting rating of 22 kAIC at 120/240VAC. A standard QOB breaker without the VH suffix typically has a 10 kAIC rating.
Does the QOB260VH feature a Visi-Trip indicator?
Yes, this breaker includes the Square D Visi-Trip visual indicator. When the breaker trips, a red flag appears in a small window on the face of the device, allowing for rapid fault identification in the panelboard.
What is the recommended wire binding screw torque for the QOB260VH?
The recommended tightening torque for the box lugs on this 60A QOB breaker is 50 lb-in (5.6 N.m). Always verify the exact torque requirements printed on the breaker label before installation.
Is the QOB260VH suitable for HVAC equipment?
Yes, Square D QOB circuit breakers are HACR rated, making them suitable for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires group motor protection.
