BQCH3B100 - 100Amp Circuit Breaker

BQCH3B100 - 100Amp Circuit Breaker

If you're looking for a BQCH3B100, you're likely replacing an existing breaker or matching the requirements of equipment already in service. This 100 amp, 3-pole bolt-on molded case circuit breaker is built on the BQCH frame and features a 14kA interrupting rating at 480VAC. When replacing a breaker, matching the frame type, amperage, pole configuration, and mounting style is often the easiest way to ensure compatibility with the original installation.

The BQCH3B100 is also HACR rated, making it suitable for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment where that designation is required. With a 40°C ambient temperature rating, it can be used in a variety of operating conditions.
