QBGF2050 - 50 Amp Circuit Breaker

QBGF2050 - 50 Amp GFCI Circuit Breaker

Protect your home or business with the Eaton QBGF2050, a dependable Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) breaker built to detect faults fast and prevent electrical hazards. This 50‑amp, two‑pole breaker comes with a 10 kA interrupt capacity and 5 mA trip sensitivity, making it well‑suited for locations where safety matters most. Whether you’re installing in a panelboard, load center, or serving HVAC equipment, this breaker delivers peace of mind and reliable protection.

Key Features and Benefits

• Superior Safety from Ground Faults: This breaker senses as little as 5 mA of leakage current and trips immediately, reducing risk of electric shock.
• Handles Demanding Loads: Rated at 50 amps with a 10 kA interrupt capacity, it stands up to moderate fault conditions without failing.
• Secure Installation: Bolt‑on mounting paired with a non‑interchangeable design ensures a tight, stable connection that resists loosening over time.
• Meets Industry Standards: UL 489 compliance and HACR rating mean it’s safe for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration systems.
• Durable Build: Constructed with materials and design meant to last; performs well under repeated switching or load, giving you long‑lasting service.
