Product FAQs

7 answers
Can I install the QOB31001021 in a standard QO load center?

No. The QOB31001021 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 the 1021 suffix mean on the QOB31001021?

The 1021 suffix indicates that this breaker includes a factory-installed shunt trip accessory rated for 120, 208, or 240 VAC. This allows the breaker to be tripped remotely via a separate control circuit.

How many panel spaces does the QOB31001021 require?

Although it is a 3-pole breaker, the factory-installed shunt trip module requires an additional pole space. Therefore, this breaker takes up a total of four panel spaces in an NQ or NQOD panelboard.

What wire sizes are accepted by the shunt trip terminals on this breaker?

The shunt trip terminals on the QOB31001021 accept up to two 14 AWG to 12 AWG copper wires. The hot and neutral control wires can be connected to either terminal.

Is the QOB31001021 HACR rated?

Yes. Like most standard QOB breakers, this unit is HACR rated, making it suitable for group motor applications in heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.

What does the LI trip function code mean for this breaker?

The LI designation indicates that the thermal magnetic trip unit provides Long-Time (thermal) protection against overloads and Instantaneous (magnetic) protection against short circuits. Both trip settings are fixed on this model.

How does the Visi-Trip indicator work on this breaker?

The Visi-Trip indicator provides a clear visual cue when the breaker has tripped. The handle moves to a center position, and a highly visible red indicator appears in a window on the breaker case, making it easy to identify the tripped circuit in a crowded panel.
