Q1520NC - Duplex 15/20 Circuit Breaker

Q1520NC - Duplex 15/20 Circuit Breaker

The Q1520NC is a 15/20-Amp Type QT duplex circuit breaker designed for compatible plug-in applications. With both a 15-amp and 20-amp circuit in a breaker that's only 1 inch wide, it's a useful option when you're working with limited panel space. The breaker is rated for 120 VAC, has a 10 kA I.C. rating, and is HACR-rated. It measures 3.13 inches high, 1 inch wide, and 2.56 inches deep. If you're replacing an existing Q1520NC, the dimensions are helpful, but they shouldn't be the only thing you check. Match the part number, Type QT design, amperage, voltage, interrupting rating, and the panel requirements. A breaker can look like the right fit and still not be suitable for a particular panel.

Key Features and Benefits

• 15/20 Amp duplex configuration gives you two circuit ratings in one breaker.
• At 1 inch wide, it takes up relatively little panel space.
• Rated 10k A.I.C. at 120VAC.
• Plug-in design for compatible applications.
• HACR-rated for applicable heating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration circuits.
• Measures 3.13" high x 1.0" wide x 2.56" deep.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• The information available for the Q1520NC identifies it as HACR-rated and lists a 40°C temperature designation. No other material compliance information or certifications were provided in the supplied specifications, so none are being assumed here.
• For a job that requires a specific listing, certification, or approval, check the markings on the breaker and the equipment's technical requirements.
  

Where It Works Best

• The Q1520NC is intended for compatible equipment that accepts Type QT plug-in duplex circuit breakers. The 1-inch-wide duplex configuration is handy when panel space is tight, and the application calls for 15-amp and 20-amp circuit protection.
  
• Its HACR rating also makes it suitable for heating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration circuits, provided the breaker's other ratings meet the application's requirements.
  
• For replacement work, start with the Q1520NC part number, then verify the Type QT configuration, 15/20 Amp rating, 120VAC rating, 10k A.I.C. rating, and panel compatibility. Don't choose a breaker based on physical size alone.
