QGA222251 - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

QGA222251 - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

If you’re working on a 240V system and need something you can trust to actually protect it, the QGA222251 PowerPacT Q circuit breaker is a solid, no-nonsense choice. It’s rated at 225 amps with a 65kA interrupting capacity, so it’s built to handle serious fault conditions without putting your equipment at risk. The thermal-magnetic trip does exactly what you expect—it reacts to overloads and short circuits quickly and consistently, without any unnecessary complexity. Installation is straightforward. The I-Line connection on the line side lets it drop into the panel the way it should, and the load-side lugs give you room to work when landing conductors. There’s also a push-to-trip button on the front, which makes testing easy when you’re doing maintenance. This is the kind of breaker you install once and move on—because it just does its job.
