Delivering enhanced short-circuit protection, the QOB320VH is a 3-pole, 20A miniature circuit breaker rated for 22kAIC at 120/240VAC. It provides robust thermal-magnetic defense for commercial electrical systems. This breaker fastens securely into Square D NQ and NQOD panelboards. The bolt-on mounting design ensures a reliable, vibration-proof connection to the panel busbar. As part of the proven QO family, it features Square D's exclusive Visi-Trip indicator.
What panelboards accept the QOB320VH circuit breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is approved for use in Square D NQ and NQOD panelboards. Because it is a bolt-on model, it is not compatible with standard QO load centers, which only accept plug-on breakers.
What does the VH suffix mean on the QOB320VH?
The VH suffix indicates an upgraded interrupting rating of 22kAIC at 120/240VAC. A standard QOB breaker without the VH suffix is typically rated at a lower 10kAIC capacity.
Can the QOB320VH replace a standard QOB320?
Yes, it is physically identical to the standard QOB320 and serves as a direct drop-in replacement. It offers a higher interrupting rating, making it a safe upgrade or substitute when the standard 10kAIC version is unavailable.
How much space does the QOB320VH require in a panel?
This three-pole breaker requires three standard 3/4-inch panel spaces, occupying a total width of 2.25 inches on the bus bar.
What is the terminal tightening torque for the QOB320VH?
The pressure plate terminals should be torqued to 40.7 lb-in (4.6 N.m) when securing 14 AWG to 8 AWG copper or aluminum wire.
Is the QOB320VH suitable for heating and air conditioning equipment?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated. It is fully approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires a 20A three-pole circuit.
