QC1020 - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

QC1020 - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

The QC1020 is a 20-amp, single-pole Type QC circuit breaker for 120 VAC electrical systems. It uses a thermal-magnetic trip to protect branch circuits from overloads and short circuits. With a 10kA interrupting rating, 40°C temperature rating, and HACR certification, it's suitable for a range of your compatible residential and commercial electrical applications. This breaker features a Quicklag® design with cable-in/cable-out connections, making it a direct replacement where a QC1020 or another compatible Type QC breaker is specified. Before replacing a breaker, always verify the part number, electrical ratings, and panel compatibility.
