BQCH3B030 - 30Amp Circuit Breaker

BQCH3B030 - 30Amp Circuit Breaker

If you're looking for a BQCH3B030, chances are you're replacing an existing breaker or matching the specifications of equipment already in service. This 30 amp, 3-pole bolt-on molded case circuit breaker is designed for systems that require a BQCH frame and a 14kA interrupting rating at 480VAC. When the frame type, amperage, and mounting style match what's already installed, replacement is usually much more straightforward.

This breaker is also HACR rated, making it suitable for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment where that designation is required. With a 40°C ambient rating, it can be used in a variety of commercial and industrial settings. Whether you're replacing a failed breaker, performing scheduled maintenance, or tracking down the correct part for an existing installation, the BQCH3B030 is built to last and designed for equipment that calls for these exact specifications.
