Schneider Electric QOB230 Mini Circuit Breaker 30A 2Pole 120/240V AC 10kA Bolt-On Mount

Description

Features

• The Schneider QOB230 is a "Bolt-On" circuit breaker. Unlike the "Plug-On" QO version used in residential panels, the QOB features a rugged metal tab with a screw-hole. It is designed to be physically bolted to the bus bar of a Square D NQ or NQOD panelboard. This creates a high-integrity, vibration-resistant connection required for Canadian commercial and industrial environments.
• This is a 2-Pole, 30-Amp breaker, meaning it occupies two spaces in your panel to provide 240V power. In a Canadian setting, it is the standard choice for protecting circuits like: Residential/Light Commercial Water Heaters , Central Air Conditioning Units , Electric Baseboard Heaters , Small Workshop Machinery
• The QOB230 includes the signature Square D Visi-TripTM indicator. When the breaker trips due to an overload or short circuit, a highly visible red flag snaps into view in the handle window. This allows maintenance staff or electricians to identify the faulty circuit at a glance, even in a crowded panelboard.
• It is engineered with a high-speed internal switching mechanism that snaps the contacts open or closed faster than a human hand can move the handle. This "Quick-Make/Quick-Break" design minimizes internal arcing and contact wear, which is essential for maintaining the long-term reliability of your electrical distribution system.
• Standard QOB230 breakers carry a 10,000 Amp Interrupting Rating (AIR) at 120/240V AC. This rating ensures the breaker can safely clear a short circuit without catastrophic failure, protecting both your facility s equipment and the upstream electrical infrastructure.
