QF230 - 30Amp Circuit Breaker

QF230 - 30Amp Circuit Breaker

The QF230 is a 2-pole, 30-amp Type QPF plug-on Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) circuit breaker designed to provide branch circuit protection against overloads, short circuits, and Class A ground faults. Rated for 120/240VAC with a 10kA A.I.C., this breaker is intended for your applications where ground-fault protection is required to help you reduce the risk of electrical shock. Its 5 mA Class A Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter makes it well-suited for residential and light commercial installations that require personnel protection in accordance with applicable electrical codes. The plug-on design allows for straightforward installation in compatible load centers. At the same time, its durable construction ensures it lasts and provides dependable service as a form, fit, and function replacement for compatible electrical systems. The breaker is also HACR-rated, making it suitable for your heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment, where permitted by the equipment manufacturer and applicable codes.
