Q1-2100TF - 100 Amp Circuit Breaker

Q1-2100TF - 100 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're replacing a breaker in existing equipment, the small details can make all the difference. The Q1-2100TF is a 100-amp, 2-pole Type Q1 plug-on thermal-magnetic circuit breaker designed for compatible electrical distribution equipment. It is rated 10 kA.I.C. at 120/240 VAC and uses top-feed line terminals, a key detail to check when matching an existing breaker. This model requires four spaces and measures 6.38 inches high, 1.5 inches wide, and 2.31 inches deep. For maintenance and replacement work, the Q1-2100TF is a practical option when the existing equipment requires this breaker style, rating, footprint, and terminal arrangement. Rather than matching on amperage alone, check the full part number and specifications against the breaker being replaced and the equipment's requirements. When correctly matched and installed, the Q1-2100TF is built to last and provides the form, fit, and function needed to keep compatible legacy equipment in service.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• Specific material compliance, certifications, and agency listings were not included in the available specifications for the Q1-2100TF. If your project requires a particular certification or compliance standard, check the markings on the individual breaker and refer to the applicable manufacturer documentation before installation. This is especially important when the breaker will be used in equipment subject to specific code, inspection, or facility requirements.

Where It Works Best

• The Q1-2100TF makes the most sense for existing electrical equipment designed around its particular Type Q1 configuration. It's especially relevant for maintenance and replacement projects where you need to match a 100A, 2-pole, 120/240 VAC plug-on breaker with a 10 kA.I.C. rating and top-feed line terminals.
  
• And that's worth emphasizing: 100 amps and two poles don't tell the whole story. Breaker type, dimensions, voltage, interrupting rating, terminal position, space requirements, and equipment compatibility all need to line up.
  
• For that reason, compare the Q1-2100TF part number and specifications with the existing breaker and the electrical equipment requirements before making a replacement. If the application calls for this exact configuration, the Q1-2100TF provides the familiar form, fit, and function required for compatibility with legacy systems.
