QOB2301021 - Square D 30 Amp 2 Pole 120/240VAC Bolt-On Miniature Circuit Breaker with Shunt Trip, 10kA Interrupt, QO Series, Thermal Magnetic Trip, UL/CSA Listed
Description
Product Overview
The QOB2301021 is a Square D QO series 2‑pole, 30 amp, 120/240VAC bolt‑on miniature circuit breaker with thermal‑magnetic trip and an integral shunt trip.
Designed for power distribution panels using QO bolt‑on mountings, this breaker carries a 10 kA interrupting rating and is UL and CSA listed.
Key Features
- 2‑pole, 30 A rating for 120/240 VAC systems
- Bolt‑on QO series miniature breaker form factor
- Thermal‑magnetic trip for combined overload and short‑circuit protection
- Integral shunt trip for remote trip/lockout functionality
- 10 kA interrupting rating
- UL and CSA listed
Function and Intended Use
The QOB2301021 provides combined thermal (overload) and magnetic (short‑circuit) protection for branch circuits in 120/240VAC distribution systems. Its 2‑pole design allows simultaneous disconnection of both ungrounded conductors for multi‑wire or split‑phase loads.
- Protects branch circuits up to 30 A
- Used in load centers and distribution panels that accept QO bolt‑on breakers
- Suitable where remote tripping is required via the built‑in shunt trip
Electrical Ratings and Performance
Use this breaker where a 30 amp, 2‑pole protection device is required for 120/240VAC systems and where a 10 kA interrupting rating meets the available fault current.
- Rated current: 30 A
- Voltage: 120/240 VAC
- Interrupting rating: 10 kA
Shunt Trip / Controls
This QO breaker includes an integral shunt trip mechanism to allow remote tripping or electrical lockout when wired to an external control circuit. The shunt trip is commonly used for emergency shutdown, fire panel interlocks, or safety interlocks.
- Integral shunt trip enables remote electrical trip capability
- Requires appropriate external control wiring and supply to operate the shunt trip
Mounting and Physical Compatibility
The QOB2301021 is a bolt‑on miniature breaker in Square D's QO series form factor. Confirm that the equipment or panel accepts QO bolt‑on breakers before ordering.
- Bolt‑on QO series mounting
- 2‑pole physical configuration—mounts as a single two‑pole device in compatible panels
