Q50 - 50Amp Circuit Breaker

Q50 - 50Amp Circuit Breaker

Looking for a 50-amp Q50 circuit breaker to match an existing electrical application? The Q50 keeps things straightforward. This single-pole, Type Q plug-on circuit breaker is rated for 50 amps with a 10 kA interrupting rating at 120 VAC. Its physical dimensions 4.81 inches high, 0.75 inches wide, and 2.5 inches deep are especially useful when you're checking form and fit for an existing or legacy electrical system. Rather than guessing whether a breaker is suitable, you can compare the Q50's part number, Type Q configuration, plug-on connection, amperage, voltage, A.I.C. rating, pole count, and dimensions with those of the breaker being replaced and the equipment's requirements. It's a practical, built-to-last circuit protection component for applications designed around these specifications. For electricians, maintenance teams, and facility professionals trying to keep existing equipment in service, the Q50 provides clearly defined electrical and dimensional characteristics that make compatibility easier to evaluate.

Key Features and Benefits

• Rated at 50 amps with a 1-pole configuration for applications requiring these specific electrical characteristics.
• Designed in the Type Q form factor for compatible electrical equipment and legacy applications.
• Features a plug-on connection for equipment that accepts this breaker style.
• Provides a 10,000-amp interrupting rating at 120VAC, an important specification to confirm when matching a replacement breaker.
• Measures 4.81" H x 0.75" W x 2.5" D, helping you compare physical fit with the existing breaker and equipment.
• The clearly defined ratings and dimensions make the Q50 easier to evaluate when you're searching for a form, fit, and functional replacement.
• Made for continued use as a circuit protection component in compatible electrical systems.
