Eaton siemens-q230 30A 2-pole Circuit Breaker 120/240V

Product Description

The EATON siemens-q230 is a double pole, plug-in circuit breaker rated at 30 amperes and 120/240 volts. It is designed for use in residential load centers and light commercial panelboards where dependable overcurrent protection is required. The breaker installs without tools into compatible plug-in style panels and provides simultaneous disconnection of both legs of a 240-volt circuit. Electricians and panel service technicians use this breaker as a standard replacement or new-circuit addition in residential and light-duty office electrical systems.

This breaker is suited for residential applications and light office environments. It is commonly used to protect 240-volt branch circuits such as dryer circuits, water heater circuits, HVAC equipment, and similar double-pole loads. The plug-in design makes it a straightforward fit for compatible load centers during panel upgrades, circuit additions, or breaker replacement work.
