Product FAQs
6 answers
What is the difference between Square D QOU and QO circuit breakers?
QOU breakers are unit-mount devices designed for DIN rail, surface, or flush mounting in OEM panels and enclosures. QO breakers are plug-on devices built specifically for Square D QO load centers and panelboards.
Can I install the QOU3151021 in a standard Square D QO load center?
No. The QOU3151021 is a unit-mount breaker designed for OEM panels, control panels, and DIN rail systems. It does not have the plug-on mounting required for standard QO load centers.
What does the 1021 suffix mean in the QOU3151021 catalog number?
The 1021 suffix indicates that this breaker includes a factory-installed 120/240VAC shunt trip. This accessory allows the breaker to be tripped remotely by an external signal, which is common in automated control panels.
How is the QOU3151021 mounted in a control panel?
This unit-mount breaker can be snapped directly onto a standard 35mm DIN rail. It can also be surface-mounted or flush-mounted using a compatible 3-pole mounting foot, such as the Square D QOUMF3B.
Are the box lugs on the QOU3151021 reversible?
Yes, the slotted box lugs on QOU series breakers are reversible. This allows for flexible line and load wiring configurations, which is especially useful when routing 14 to 2 AWG wire in tight OEM enclosures.
Does the QOU3151021 feature a tripped status indicator?
Yes, QOU series breakers include the Square D Visi-Trip indicator. A highly visible red flag appears in the indicator window when the breaker trips, allowing electricians to quickly identify faulted circuits in a crowded panel.
