Schneider QO115CAFI – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Schneider QO115CAFI fit a Homeline or Square D QO load center?
The QO115CAFI is a plug-in breaker built for the Schneider Electric QO range of load centers and it takes one space. Homeline panels use a different bus and breaker footprint, so a QO breaker is not the part for a Homeline panel. If the panel interior is stamped QO, this drops straight onto the bus with no adapter or mounting hardware.
2) How many spaces does a QO 15A arc-fault breaker take in the panel?
One space. The QO115CAFI is a 1-pole device, 0.75 in wide, 4.76 in high and 2.91 in deep, so it swaps one-for-one with a standard 1-pole QO breaker without giving up a second slot. That matters on a full panel where you are adding AFCI protection to existing bedroom and living-area circuits.
3) Does this arc-fault breaker need a neutral wire connected?
Yes. The QO combination arc-fault breaker has a pigtail neutral, so the circuit neutral lands on the breaker's pressure plate terminal and the breaker's white pigtail goes to the panel neutral bar. Arc-fault sensing will not work if you land the branch neutral straight on the bar. Plan on a free hole in the neutral bar for every AFCI you add.
4) Is a combination arc-fault breaker different from a plain AFCI or a GFCI breaker?
A combination-type AFCI like the QO115CAFI detects both series arcing (a loose connection or damaged conductor) and parallel arcing, which is what the code requires for dwelling-unit branch circuits. It is not a GFCI: it is not looking for a ground fault at a 5 mA people-protection level, so where you need ground-fault protection at a receptacle, kitchen or bath, use a GFCI device or a dual-function breaker instead.
5) Can I use this 15A QO breaker on a 240V circuit or a well pump?
No. It is a 1-pole 120VAC device, so it only serves a single hot leg to neutral. A 240V two-wire load needs a 2-pole breaker. It is HACR rated, which covers feeding heating, air conditioning and refrigeration equipment on a 120V branch circuit.
6) What is the torque spec on the QO115CAFI lug?
Tighten the terminal to 4 N.m. Use a torque screwdriver rather than feel, since loose terminations on an arc-fault device are a common cause of nuisance tripping and heating at the lug.
7) Is this breaker TAA compliant for a government or institutional project?
Yes, the QO 15A combination arc-fault breaker is listed as TAA compliant, and country of origin is Mexico. That makes it usable on federal and other TAA-governed procurements where domestic-preference sourcing has to be documented.
8) Which part number do I order for a 15A single-pole QO combination AFCI?
Order Schneider Electric QO115CAFI. That is the 15A, 1-pole, 120VAC combination arc-fault breaker in the QO range with plug-in mounting and a pigtail neutral.
9) What ambient temperature is this breaker rated for, and can I fill a panel with them?
The QO115CAFI is rated for operation at 40 degrees C ambient. In a hot attic, garage or a sun-exposed exterior panel enclosure running above that, expect derating and consider relocating or ventilating the panel rather than assuming full 15A continuous duty.
10) Can these breakers be repaired or rebuilt if they start tripping?
No, they are not field serviceable. A QO arc-fault breaker that trips repeatedly with the load disconnected gets replaced, not opened. Average life duration is quoted at 15 years, so on older panels a batch replacement is often the practical MRO approach.
11) Does the Schneider QO CAFI breaker meet Green Premium or RoHS requirements for a sustainability spec?
It carries Schneider's Green Premium product status, is mercury free, and holds an environmental profile reference (ENVPEP2212005) with a stated total lifecycle carbon footprint of 39 kg CO2 eq. Note for reporting: it is RoHS compliant with exemptions, and the REACH record states the reference contains Substances of Very High Concern above the threshold. Packaging is free of single-use plastic but is not recycled cardboard.
