QBP22225TM - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

QBP22225TM - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

The QBP22225TM PowerPacT™ Q-Frame circuit breaker is a reliable choice for keeping your electrical systems safe and running smoothly. Built for 240VAC applications, this 2-pole, 225-amp breaker helps protect against overloads and short circuits while making power distribution easier to manage. It’s designed with a thermal-magnetic trip system that responds fast when there’s a fault, helping you avoid downtime and costly equipment damage.

Key Features and Benefits

• Handles Heavy Fault Currents: With a breaking capacity of 10kA at both 120/208V AC and 240V AC, this breaker is made to handle demanding electrical loads.
• Built-in Protection: The thermal-magnetic trip feature works on two levels, catching both long-term overloads and sudden short circuits.
• Easy to Install: Unit mount design with terminal nuts on the line side and lugs on the load side makes setup straightforward and secure.
• Certified for Safety: Meets UL, CSA, and NOM standards, so you know it’s been tested for performance and safety.
