B-LINE QC4040H – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Eaton Quicklag QC4040H a 40 amp four-pole breaker, and what voltage is it rated for?
Yes. The Quicklag Type QC model QC4040H is a four-pole industrial miniature circuit breaker rated 40 A at 240 V. Four poles means it switches three phases plus a neutral or a fourth switched leg together, so all four conductors open on a trip.
2) How does the QC4040H connect to the circuit conductors, is it a plug-on or bolt-on?
It is a cable-in/cable-out breaker, so both line and load land on terminal lugs with conductors rather than clipping onto a panel bus stab. That makes it suited to industrial enclosures, control panels and equipment builds where you are running cable straight into the device.
3) Can I use the QC4040H on a 480 V system?
No. This breaker is rated 240 V only, so it cannot be applied on 480 V or 600 V equipment. For a four-pole 40 A application above 240 V you need a breaker with a higher voltage rating on its nameplate.
4) What is the difference between a thermal-magnetic breaker and a magnetic-only one for motor or feeder protection?
The Quicklag QC uses a thermal-magnetic trip: a bimetal element handles sustained overloads with an inverse time delay, and a magnetic element trips instantly on a short circuit. That combination protects both the conductors against long-duration overload and the circuit against faults. A magnetic-only (instantaneous) device gives short-circuit protection alone and relies on a separate overload relay, which is why it shows up in motor starter combinations rather than general branch and feeder work.
5) What exact part number should I order to match an existing Quicklag QC four-pole 40 amp breaker?
Order Eaton Quicklag catalog number QC4040H. The number breaks down as Type QC, four-pole, 40 A, with the H suffix denoting the 10 kAIC interrupting rating at 240 V. If the unit you are replacing carries a different suffix, the interrupting rating differs and you should match the existing designation.
6) What are the dimensions and weight of the QC4040H four-pole breaker for panel layout?
The catalog spec gives 12 in length/depth, 5 in height and .6 in width, with a product weight of 7.31 lb. Use those figures when you are checking gutter space and mounting room in the enclosure before you order.
