QGP22100TM - 100 Amp Circuit Breaker

QGP22100TM - 100 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're working with higher amperage circuits, you don't want to second-guess your protection. The QGP22100TM 100 amp circuit breaker is built for exactly that kind of situation—simple, dependable, and ready to handle demanding electrical loads without fuss. This is a 2-pole thermal magnetic breaker, which means it reacts the way you expect it to. It handles overloads over time and trips instantly when there's a short circuit. Nothing complicated—just solid protection doing its job in the background. Where this unit really stands out is its 65kA interrupting rating at 240VAC. That gives it the muscle to deal with higher fault currents, making it a practical choice for commercial setups or heavier-duty applications where lower-rated breakers just won't cut it. The design is straightforward. You've got 1/4-20" studs on the line side and lug terminals on the load side, so installation is pretty standard if you've worked with this style before. The non-interchangeable trip unit is factory set, which means no adjustments and no surprises—it performs exactly as intended right out of the box.
