BQC230230 - Quadplex 30/30 Circuit Breaker Description
BQC230230 - Quadplex 30/30 Circuit Breaker
The Eaton BQC230230 is a Type BQC quadplex circuit breaker used in compatible BR loadcenters. This breaker combines two 2-pole, 30-amp circuits into a single compact unit, making it a common choice when additional circuits are needed and panel space is limited. Rated for 120/240VAC, it features a common-trip design and thermal magnetic protection for branch circuit applications.
You'll often see the BQC230230 installed in homes, apartment buildings, small commercial properties, workshops, and other facilities using BR-style loadcenters. It is frequently used for air conditioning equipment, water heaters, pumps, compressors, and other 240-volt circuits.
For many electricians and maintenance teams, finding the right replacement comes down to matching the original breaker type and panel requirements.
