Applications

Square D QOU series breakers are standard protection devices in electrical panels and load centers throughout North America. The 2-pole configuration is used for 240V single-phase circuits or split-phase loads, commonly protecting circuits for HVAC equipment, water heaters, dryer circuits, range circuits, or larger single-phase motors. These breakers have been the industry standard since the 1960s and remain in widespread use in maintenance, replacement, and retrofit applications. They provide dependable thermal-magnetic trip protection against overloads and short circuits. The 10kA interrupt rating is suitable for branch circuit protection in most residential and light commercial environments.
