Schneider QBP22200TM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What amp ratings does the Schneider PowerPact Q 2-pole thermal-magnetic breaker come in?
Two ratings are offered on the QBP22TM 2-pole thermal-magnetic breaker: 100 A (QBP22100TM) and 200 A (QBP22200TM). Both are 2-pole units with the same thermal-magnetic trip unit and the same body footprint, so the choice comes down to the panel main or feeder ampacity you are protecting.
2) Will a PowerPact Q QBP22TM breaker physically fit in my panelboard enclosure?
The QBP22TM 2-pole molded case breaker measures 3.00 in wide, 6.47 in high and 3.93 in deep. Check that against the gutter and mounting space in your enclosure before ordering, particularly the 3.93 in depth, which drives how far the breaker sits off the pan toward the cover.
3) Can I use this Schneider breaker to protect a rooftop HVAC unit or a compressor?
Yes. The PowerPact Q 2-pole thermal-magnetic breaker carries an HACR rating, which is what makes it acceptable for heating, air conditioning and refrigeration equipment where the nameplate calls for an HACR type breaker. The thermal-magnetic trip curve rides through normal compressor inrush while still holding overload protection.
4) Can I load a 200A PowerPact Q breaker to its full 200 amps continuously?
No. The QBP22TM is an 80% continuous current rated device, so a continuous load (three hours or more) should not exceed 80 percent of the handle rating. That works out to 160 A on the 200 A unit and 80 A on the 100 A unit. Size the breaker for the continuous portion of the load accordingly, or step up to the next rating.
5) What is the magnetic trip point on the PowerPact Q thermal-magnetic breaker?
The instantaneous magnetic element holds at 1200 A and trips at 2400 A. That fixed pickup matters for coordination: if you are feeding a motor or transformer whose inrush exceeds 2400 A, the breaker will trip on energization, and you would need a higher-rated frame or a different trip unit.
6) Is this Schneider breaker OK in a hot mechanical room or an outdoor rooftop enclosure?
The QBP22TM is specified for an ambient operating air temperature of 40 to 70 degrees C. That covers hot electrical and mechanical rooms and enclosures that run warm. Remember the 80 percent continuous loading limit still applies on top of ambient.
7) Can the trip unit on this PowerPact Q breaker be adjusted or repaired in the field?
No. The QBP22TM is a fixed thermal-magnetic device with a non-serviceable design, operated by a manual handle only. There are no field-replaceable internals or adjustable settings, so a failed or nuisance-tripping unit gets swapped rather than rebuilt.
8) I need a convertible main breaker kit instead of a fixed 2-pole main - what is the alternative to the PowerPact Q QBP22TM?
Look at the Eaton Pow-R-Xpress convertible main circuit breaker kit, which is built as a convertible main assembly. The Schneider PowerPact Q QBP22TM is a fixed 2-pole molded case breaker with a thermal-magnetic trip unit and an operating handle, offered at 100 A and 200 A for distribution service. The Eaton kit is the route when the panel needs a main that can be converted rather than a dedicated 2-pole PowerPact Q breaker. The two are not interchangeable hardware - match the kit to the panelboard it is listed for.
9) Can I order the Eaton 2TA401K terminal accessory to land cable on a PowerPact Q breaker?
No. The Eaton 2TA401K is a Series C 400A terminal accessory for Cu/Al conductors, built for Eaton Series C frames, not for the Schneider PowerPact Q. The PowerPact Q QBP22TM ships with lug mounting support of its own and takes a 22 mm wire stripping length at the terminations. Terminal accessories are frame-specific, so a Series C part does not land on a PowerPact Q.
10) I need the breaker to trip remotely on loss of control voltage - does the PowerPact Q QBP22TM do that, or do I need something else?
The Schneider PowerPact Q QBP22TM is controlled by an operating handle, a manual device with no shunt or undervoltage function of its own. If the application calls for the breaker to open when control voltage drops, that job belongs to an undervoltage release such as the Eaton 10250T series undervoltage release used on Eaton NZM molded case breakers. Releases are frame-specific accessories, so pair the release with its own breaker family rather than expecting it to mount on a PowerPact Q.
11) For HVAC equipment protection, which breaker should I spec - the PowerPact Q QBP22TM or an Eaton BAB branch breaker?
The Schneider PowerPact Q QBP22TM carries an HACR rating, which is the designation specified for heating, air conditioning and refrigeration circuits, and it holds magnetic current at 1200 A with magnetic tripping at 2400 A. The Eaton BAB1010 is a Quicklag bolt-on thermal-magnetic branch breaker, a smaller branch-level device. For a 100 A or 200 A 2-pole HVAC feeder on lugs, the PowerPact Q QBP22TM is the matching device; the BAB serves branch circuits inside the panel.
12) Can I use this breaker on a 50 Hz system or only 60 Hz?
Both. The PowerPact Q 2-pole breaker is specified for 50/60 Hz network operation, so it works on North American 60 Hz distribution and on 50 Hz systems alike.
13) Is the PowerPact Q QBP22TM halogen free and RoHS compliant for a green building spec?
It qualifies as a Schneider Green Premium product, is halogen free and mercury free, and is EU RoHS compliant with exemptions. There is an environmental product profile on file under reference ENVPEP2311048EN if your LEED or sustainability submittal needs documentation. One caution for procurement: the reference is declared as containing Substances of Very High Concern above the REACH threshold.
14) Where are Schneider PowerPact Q QBP22TM breakers made, and is lot traceability available?
Country of origin is Mexico, and the product carries traceability. That covers the two questions institutional and government buyers usually raise on a submittal: sourcing disclosure and the ability to trace a unit back to its production record.
15) What kind of service life should I plan for on a PowerPact Q main breaker in a commercial panel?
Schneider publishes a 15 year average life duration for the PowerPact Q, and it is built for commercial distribution duty under utilisation category A. For an MRO plan that means treating it as a long-interval replacement item rather than a repairable one, since the breaker is not field serviceable.
