Eaton sqd-qo230 Circuit Breaker 30A 2P 120/240V

Product Description

The EATON sqd-qo230 is a 2-pole, 30-amp miniature circuit breaker rated for 120/240 volts AC and 10 kiloamps (kA) of interrupting capacity. It uses a plug-on mounting style, making it compatible with QO-style load centers. The trip window feature provides a visible indicator of the breaker state, allowing electricians to quickly identify tripped breakers during service calls. This unit is suited for residential and light commercial branch circuit protection in panelboard applications.

The sqd-qo230 is designed for use in QO-type load centers in residential and light commercial installations. It protects 240-volt branch circuits such as those serving water heaters, air conditioners, dryers, and similar double-pole loads. Electricians installing or servicing panelboards will recognize the plug-on design as a standard fit for QO-compatible enclosures. The 10 kA interrupting rating meets the fault-current requirements common in residential service entrances.
