Q24020 - Quadplex 40/20 Circuit Breaker

Q24020 - Quadplex 40/20 Circuit Breaker

Looking for a Q24020 circuit breaker to match an existing setup? This Type QT quadplex breaker has a 40/20-amp configuration and is rated at 10 kA at 120/240 VAC. One of its main advantages is size. At only 2 inches wide, it puts multiple circuit positions into a compact footprint, which can be useful when you're dealing with limited room in a compatible electrical panel. The breaker uses a plug-in connection and measures 3.13 inches high, 2 inches wide, and 2.56 inches deep. It's also HACR-rated, an important detail for certain heating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration applications. For replacement jobs, compare the Q24020 with the breaker you're removing and check the full set of ratings, not just the part number. Amperage, voltage, breaker type, interrupting capacity, physical size, and panel compatibility should all line up.

Key Features and Benefits

• A 40/20-amp quadplex configuration offers multiple circuit positions in a space-saving breaker design.
• At 2 inches wide, it doesn't take up unnecessary room in an appropriate panel.
• Rated 10kA at 120/240VAC.
• Plug-in design for panels made to accept this breaker type.
• HACR rated for qualifying heating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
• The compact 3.13" x 2.0" x 2.56" dimensions make physical comparison with an existing breaker simple.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• The information provided for Q24020 identifies it as HACR-rated and notes a 40°C temperature specification. Additional material-compliance or certification information isn't included in the available specifications, so it shouldn't be assumed. If a particular approval, listing, or material standard is required for the job, verify it from the breaker markings or the applicable product documentation.

Where It Works Best

• The Q24020 is a good match for compatible electrical panels that use the Type QT plug-in configuration, particularly when panel space is limited. The quadplex arrangement lets several circuit positions share a relatively small amount of panel space.
• It's also worth considering for qualifying heating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration circuits where the equipment requires an HACR-rated breaker and the Q24020's electrical ratings match the application.
