Product FAQs

10 answers
How is the QOU130 circuit breaker mounted?

The Square D QOU130 is a standalone unit-mount circuit breaker. It features box lugs on both the line and load sides for cable-in, cable-out wiring. It can be surface mounted, flush mounted using optional mounting feet, or attached to a standard 35mm DIN rail with compatible clips.

Can I install the QOU130 in a standard QO load center?

No. The QOU series is designed exclusively for unit-mount applications like OEM enclosures and control panels. Standard QO load centers require plug-on circuit breakers.

What are the wiring specifications and torque limits for the terminals?

The slotted box lugs accept 14 AWG to 2 AWG copper or aluminum conductors. Both the line and load side terminals must be properly tightened to 45 lb-in.

Is this circuit breaker HACR rated?

Yes, the QOU130 is HACR rated. This certification verifies that the breaker is suitable for providing overcurrent protection for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.

How do I mount this breaker to a DIN rail system?

To install the QOU130 onto a standard 35mm symmetrical DIN rail, you will need a separate DIN rail mounting clip accessory, such as part number MG27124. Once the clip is attached to the breaker base, it snaps directly onto the rail.

Are QOU and QOB circuit breakers interchangeable?

They are not interchangeable. QOB breakers feature a bolt-on connection on the line side designed specifically for NQ and NQOD panelboards. QOU breakers feature box lugs on both sides for standalone unit-mount configurations.

Does the QOU130 require a specific orientation when wiring?

No. The QOU130 features reversible line and load lugs. This allows the supply power to be wired to either the top or bottom terminals without impacting the thermal-magnetic trip performance.

What is the DC interrupting rating for this breaker?

When applied in a direct current system, the QOU130 is rated for 48 VDC with a maximum interrupting capacity of 5 kA. This makes it suitable for low-voltage battery or telecom control panels.

How does the QOU130 indicate it has tripped?

It is equipped with Square D Visi-Trip technology. When the breaker trips due to a fault, the handle snaps to a center position and a highly visible red indicator appears in the window, making it easy to identify in a crowded enclosure.

Will this fit in a Square D Homeline panel?

No. The QOU130 is a unit-mount control panel breaker. It does not have a plug-on jaw and is physically incompatible with Homeline residential load centers.
