Product FAQs
5 answers
Can I install a QOU120 breaker in a standard Square D QO load center?
No, QOU circuit breakers are unit-mount components designed for DIN rail systems, control panels, and OEM enclosures. Unlike standard QO breakers, they do not have a plug-on configuration and will not fit in a standard QO load center.
How does the QOU120 mount to a DIN rail?
The QOU120 can be mounted to a standard 35mm symmetrical DIN rail, but it requires a separate mounting foot accessory to attach securely. The breaker can also be surface mounted or flush mounted.
Is the QOU120 suitable for HVAC or lighting applications?
Yes, this breaker is both HACR rated for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment, and SWD (Switching Duty) rated for switching 120V fluorescent lighting loads.
Can the QOU120 miniature circuit breaker be reverse fed?
Yes, standard thermal-magnetic QOU breakers can be reverse fed. The device features reversible box lugs for flexible wiring configurations without strict line and load side constraints.
Is there an alternative 20A single-pole unit mount breaker with a higher interrupting rating?
Yes, the QOU120VH is the 22kAIC version of this 20-amp breaker. It shares the same dimensions, mounting style, and terminal specifications but provides a higher interrupting capacity for systems that require it.
