Eaton Quicklag BAB Bolt-On Circuit Breaker, Q7 Series
The Eaton Quicklag BAB Bolt-On Circuit Breaker, Q7 Series, spans configurations from a 30A 3-Pole Shunt Trip breaker to a 50A 1-Pole breaker on a single Type BAB bolt-on platform. Every configuration uses the Quicklag thermal-magnetic trip mechanism in a non-interchangeable Q7 series trip unit, backed by a 10 kAIC interrupting rating for reliable fault protection. Select configurations are also rated for use on High Intensity Discharge (HID) lighting circuits, an application requiring breakers with specific trip characteristics, making the BAB series a dependable choice for compatible Eaton load centers.
