QDA222001 - 200 Amp Circuit Breaker

QDA222001 - 200 Amp Circuit Breaker

The QDA222001 is a 200 amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker built on the PowerPact Q-Frame platform. It’s rated for 25kA at 240VAC, giving you the fault-clearing capacity needed for many commercial and light industrial electrical systems. Designed with a thermal magnetic trip unit, this breaker reacts to both sustained overloads and sudden short circuits, helping protect downstream equipment before serious damage can occur. This model uses an I-Line, plug-on connection, making it a practical fit for compatible panelboard setups. The molded case housing helps shield internal components from everyday wear inside electrical enclosures. At just under 8 inches tall and approximately 3 pounds, it’s substantial enough for higher-amperage applications without being oversized or difficult to handle during installation. For maintenance teams replacing an existing QDA frame breaker—or contractors working from a 200A, 2-pole, 25kA specification—the QDA222001 checks the right boxes without overcomplicating the job.
