Q2M3175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

Q2M3175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're replacing a breaker in existing equipment, the little details matter. The Q2M3175 is a 175-amp, 3-pole Type Q2M thermal-magnetic circuit breaker rated 10 kA.I.C. at 240VAC. It has a non-interchangeable trip unit and uses 1/4-20" studs on both the line and load sides—an important detail to check when matching it to an existing installation. The breaker measures 6.5" high, 4.5" wide, and 3.13" deep. If your equipment calls for the Q2M3175, these dimensions, electrical ratings, pole configuration, and connection points should all be checked as part of confirming the correct form, fit, and function. It's a practical choice for maintaining compatible legacy electrical equipment where this specific Q2M configuration is required. Simple, purpose-built, and made for its intended application, this breaker is built to last when correctly installed and used within its stated ratings.

Key Features and Benefits
