Q2M2175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

Q2M2175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

If you're looking for a Q2M2175 circuit breaker, chances are you already have an existing application that needs a specific fit. This Q2M thermal magnetic breaker is rated at 175 amps, has 2 poles, and carries a 10k AIC rating at 120/240VAC. One detail worth checking closely is the connection style: the Q2M2175 uses 1/4-20" studs on both the line and load sides. It also has a non-interchangeable trip unit. The breaker measures 6.5" high, 3.0" wide, and 3.13" deep, so that you can compare the dimensions directly with the breaker currently installed. For older electrical equipment, those details matter. A matching amp rating alone doesn't tell the whole story; the breaker type, voltage, interrupting rating, dimensions, poles, and connections all need to work with the application. When those specifications match, the Q2M2175 provides a straightforward form, fit, and functional replacement for compatible legacy equipment. It's a practical circuit breaker built to last when properly installed and used within its specified ratings.

Key Features and Benefits

Material Compliance and Certifications

• Certification, agency listing, and material compliance information were not included in the available specifications for the Q2M2175 breaker. If your application requires a specific listing, certification, or material standard, check the markings and documentation for the individual breaker before installation. This avoids making assumptions about compliance based on the model number or electrical ratings alone.
  

Where It Works Best

• The Q2M2175 175A circuit breaker is primarily suited to existing or legacy electrical equipment designed around the Q2M breaker configuration. It's a good fit to consider when the application specifically requires two poles, 175 amps, a 10k interrupting rating at 120/240VAC, and 1/4-20" stud connections on both sides.
