Q2L3175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

Q2L3175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're replacing a breaker in an existing electrical system, getting the details right matters. The Q2L3175 is a 175-amp, 3-pole thermal-magnetic circuit breaker with a 10k AIC rating at 240VAC. It's a Q2L-type breaker equipped with a non-interchangeable trip unit, plus lug terminals on both the line and load sides. That lug-to-lug configuration is worth checking carefully when matching the breaker to existing equipment. The Q2L3175 measures 6.5 inches high, 4.5 inches wide, and 3.13 inches deep, giving you several clear specifications to compare against the breaker you're replacing. For maintenance of compatible legacy electrical equipment, it provides the form, fit, ratings, and functionality required when the application specifically calls for this configuration. It's a straightforward breaker built to last in its intended application, without unnecessary features.

Key Features and Benefits

• 175-amp rating for equipment designed around this specific amperage.
• Three-pole configuration for compatible three-pole applications.
• Uses thermal-magnetic trip operation for overcurrent protection.
• Rated 10k AIC at 240VAC.
• Non-interchangeable trip unit with a fixed trip configuration.
• Lug terminals on both the line and load sides, an important detail when checking replacement compatibility.
• Compact physical dimensions make it easier to compare form and fit with an existing Q2L breaker.
• Designed for continued use in compatible electrical equipment when properly selected, installed, and maintained.
