Eaton QBGFT2020 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the primary use of this Eaton QBGF GFCI breaker?
This 20A two-pole GFCI breaker provides ground fault protection for 240V circuits like water heaters, pool pumps, and outdoor equipment. It protects against electrical shock in wet locations.
2) Is this breaker compatible with Eaton QB panel boards?
Yes, this QBGF breaker is designed specifically for Eaton QB series load centers and panel boards. Verify your panel model before installation.
3) What wire sizes does this breaker accept?
It accepts 14-10 AWG copper wire and 12-10 AWG aluminum wire. Ensure proper torque specifications when connecting conductors.
4) What does the 5 mA trip sensitivity mean?
The 5 mA trip sensitivity means the breaker will trip when it detects 5 milliamps of ground fault current. This provides personnel protection against electrical shock.
5) What is the interrupting capacity rating?
This breaker has a 10 kAIC (kilo-ampere interrupting capacity) rating at 120/240V. Verify this meets your system's available fault current requirements.
6) Does this meet NEC GFCI requirements?
Yes, this GFCI breaker meets NEC requirements for ground fault protection in residential and commercial applications. Check local codes for specific installation requirements.
