Schneider Electric QO130VH 30A 1-pole Circuit Breaker

Product Description

The SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC QO130VH is a single-pole, 30-amp thermal magnetic miniature circuit breaker designed for residential and light commercial electrical distribution panels. It operates at 120/240 volts AC at 50/60 Hz and carries an interrupting rating of 22 kiloamps, making it suitable for standard branch circuit overcurrent protection. The QO130VH features a Visi-Trip indicator that provides immediate visual identification of a tripped breaker, allowing faster diagnosis during service calls. Pressure plate terminals accept wire sizes from 14 to 8 AWG in copper or aluminum, or two conductors of 14 to 10 AWG copper. Licensed electricians install this breaker as part of routine panel work or load additions.

The QO130VH is built for plug-on mounting in QO Load Centers, NQOD Panelboards, NQOD OEM Interiors, and Speed-D Switchboard Distribution Panels. Its compact 0.75-inch-wide single-pole format conserves panel space in both new construction and retrofit applications. This breaker is a common-trip, standard-type device suited for general-purpose branch circuits in residential, multi-family, and light commercial installations where Square D QO-series equipment is specified.
