B-LINE HBQL15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the B-Line HBQL15 a bolt-on breaker or a plug-in type?
HBQL15 is a bolt-on breaker. It fastens to the panel bus with a screw rather than clipping onto a stab, so the panel interior has to be built for bolt-on breakers. If your panelboard interior takes plug-in breakers, this one will not mount.
2) What is the interrupting rating on the B-Line HBQL15 15 amp breaker?
22 kAIC at 120/240 Vac. That is the short circuit current it can safely interrupt, and it needs to be equal to or greater than the available fault current at the panel per your engineer's study or the panel label.
3) Can I use this 15A single-pole breaker on a 240V circuit?
No. The HBQL15 is single-pole rated 120/240 V, which means it protects one 120 V line to neutral. A 240 V two-wire load needs two poles. Use a two-pole breaker of the same type for a 240 V circuit.
4) Can the HBQL15 be used to protect an air conditioner or heat pump circuit?
Yes, it is HACR rated, so it is acceptable for use as the branch circuit protective device on multi-motor and combination-load HVAC equipment where the nameplate calls for an HACR type breaker. Match the 15 A rating to the maximum overcurrent protection on the equipment nameplate.
5) Will a B-Line HBQL breaker fit my existing panel, or do I need a specific interior?
HBQL is the breaker type designation, and it is a classic replacement breaker meant to drop into panelboards prepped for BQL/HBQL bolt-on breakers. Check the breaker type stamped on your panel's directory label or the breaker you are pulling out. If it reads BQL or HBQL and mounts by screw, this is the match; a different type code will not seat on the bus.
6) What is the difference between BQL and HBQL breakers?
The H prefix denotes the higher interrupting capacity version. The HBQL15 is rated 22 kAIC at 120/240 Vac, so it is the one to specify where the fault current at the panel exceeds the standard BQL rating. Physically it is still a single-pole bolt-on 15 A device in the same footprint.
7) What part number do I order for a 15 amp single-pole B-Line bolt-on breaker?
Order MPN HBQL15. That is a 15 A single-pole bolt-on breaker rated 120/240 V with 22 kAIC interrupting capacity. Larger or smaller trip ratings in the same family carry the amperage in the suffix, so keep the HBQL prefix when standardizing spares across a facility.
