Information About BQ230240
The BQ230240 is part of Eaton’s BR family of molded case circuit breakers, specifically engineered for space-efficient branch circuit protection. Its 1-inch CTL plug-on design incorporates a built-in rejection tab to ensure proper installation in compatible Type BR loadcenters. The breaker utilizes thermal-magnetic technology to respond accurately to both sustained overloads and instantaneous short-circuit events. It is commonly used in residential and light commercial panels where multiple two-pole circuits are required with compact panelboard integration.
Key Features:
- Dual Two-Pole Configuration: Includes one 30A and one 40A two-pole breaker in a single unit.
- Four-Pole Assembly: Provides protection for multiple branch circuits within one device.
- Thermal-Magnetic Trip Mechanism: Ensures accurate overload and short-circuit protection.
- Independent Trip Operation: Each breaker section operates independently.
- CTL Plug-On Design: Includes rejection tab for code-compliant installation.
- 10 kAIC Interrupt Rating: Rated for standard residential fault current levels.
- Type BR Compatibility: Designed exclusively for Eaton Type BR loadcenters.
The BQ230240 delivers the reliability and precision required for residential and light commercial multi-circuit branch protection.
