Product FAQs

6 answers
Can I install the QOB290 in a standard QO load center?

No, standard QO load centers only accept plug-on breakers. The QOB290 is a bolt-on breaker designed specifically for Schneider Electric NQ and NQOD panelboards.

What is the difference between the QO290 and QOB290 circuit breakers?

Both are 90A, 2-pole breakers from the Square D QO family, but they use different mounting methods. The QO290 is a plug-on breaker for residential and light commercial QO load centers, while the QOB290 is a bolt-on breaker designed for industrial NQ and NQOD panelboards.

How many panel spaces does the QOB290 require?

This 2-pole miniature circuit breaker requires two standard 3/4-inch spaces in a compatible NQ or NQOD panelboard.

What is the recommended tightening torque for the box lugs on the QOB290?

The manufacturer-specified tightening torque for the factory-installed box lugs is 49.6 lb-in (5.6 N-m) for securing 4 AWG to 2/0 AWG aluminum or copper conductors.

Does the QOB290 include a visual trip indicator?

Yes, this breaker features the Square D Visi-Trip indicator. A highly visible red indicator appears in the window when the breaker trips, making it easy to identify a tripped circuit inside a crowded panelboard.

Is the QOB290 circuit breaker HACR rated?

Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is certified for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires dedicated overcurrent protection.
