It provides overcurrent protection for 240-volt branch circuits, interrupting the circuit automatically when a fault or overload condition is detected. The breaker ships in a recloseable clamshell package in a quantity of three units. Licensed electricians install this type of breaker as part of panel upgrades, new circuit additions, or direct replacement of failed breakers in compatible load centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis breaker is suited for residential and light commercial electrical systems where 240-volt double-pole protection is required. Typical applications include branch circuits serving appliances such as dryers, ranges, HVAC equipment, water heaters, and similar 240-volt loads. The double-pole configuration interrupts both hot legs of the circuit simultaneously, which is required for proper protection of 240-volt branch circuits under NEC guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-amp double-pole configuration for 240-volt branch circuit protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSimultaneous interruption of both hot legs on overload or fault\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRecloseable clamshell packaging included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package quantity of three units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for QO-style load center installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement for QO-series residential and light commercial load centers requiring a 40-amp double-pole circuit breaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize the panel and verify the main breaker is off before handling any breaker or bus bar connection. Confirm the load center is compatible with QO-series breakers before installation. Do not exceed the breaker ampacity for the connected circuit conductors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmperage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 amps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoles\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double Pole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square D by Schneider Electric\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: QO240C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SQUARE D","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51562465001778,"sku":"QO240C","price":144.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3fd12e4bdbbed3451f4909a36d80fa52_14a863a7-34d4-4c2c-86a6-3769dff52a61.jpg?v=1786477335","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/square-d-qo240c-40a-double-pole-circuit-breaker-240v","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
