QBL32100 - 100 Amp Circuit Breaker

QBL32100 - 100 Amp Circuit Breaker

The QBL32100 PowerPacT Circuit Breaker is built to handle tough electrical loads and keep your system running safely. With a 100 amp rating and 3-pole configuration, it’s a solid fit for commercial and industrial electrical panels that need dependable overcurrent protection. Rated for 240 volts AC with a 10kA interrupting capacity, this breaker is designed to trip when it matters most—preventing damage and keeping your setup protected. It uses a thermal magnetic trip system, which means it responds both to long-term overloads and sudden spikes in current. It’s a practical, reliable piece of hardware that installers trust. And thanks to its straightforward lug connections and unit mount design, it’s easy to install and built to last through thousands of operations.
