QBF32200TS - 200 Amp Circuit Breaker

QBF32200TS - 200 Amp Circuit Breaker

When your electrical system demands serious protection, the QBF32200TS steps in with confidence. This 200A PowerPacT™ Q-Frame circuit breaker from Schneider Electric delivers reliable overcurrent protection in 240 V AC systems—ideal for installations where durability, safety, and clarity of performance matter most. Its thermal-magnetic trip technology gives you solid protection in the event of excessive current, yet it operates smoothly during normal conditions. Whether for industrial switchgear, commercial electrical panels, or demanding HVAC applications, this breaker is engineered to stand up to the task day after day.

Key Features and Benefits

• High Capacity, Confident Protection — Rated at 200 amps with a 10 kA interrupting capacity, this breaker handles heavy loads with ease, giving you peace of mind under high demand.
• Thermal-Magnetic Trip Unit — Combines slow thermal response (for overloads) and instantaneous magnetic response (for short circuits), giving you a balanced, dependable protection profile.
• Long Service Life — Built to last, it endures up to 1,000 loaded cycles and 5,000 no-load cycles so you won’t be swapping it out prematurely.
• Built for Ease — A push-to-trip button enables safe manual testing, and its busbar-stud connection simplifies installation and upkeep.
• Clear Performance Design — The breaker is laid out with legible markings and robust terminals to reduce wiring error and speed up commissioning.
