QGP22150TM - 150 Amp Circuit Breaker

QGP22150TM - 150 Amp Circuit Breaker

The QGP22150TM circuit breaker is a high-interrupting capacity, 150 amp, 2-pole thermal magnetic breaker designed to deliver dependable overcurrent protection in demanding 240VAC power distribution systems. Built on a QGP frame with a non-interchangeable trip unit, this breaker provides consistent, factory-calibrated performance that helps safeguard electrical equipment against overloads and short circuits. With a substantial 65kA A.I.C. rating at 240VAC, the QGP22150TM is well-suited for applications where available fault current is high and system protection must be precise and reliable. The unit features 1/4-20” studs on the line side and lug terminals on the load side, allowing for secure, stable connections in commercial and industrial panelboards. Weighing approximately 3 lbs and measuring 6.5 inches in height, it offers a solid build while remaining practical for installation in compatible assemblies.

Whether you’re maintaining an existing QGP-based system or upgrading protection for a high-demand circuit, the QGP22150TM provides the amperage capacity and interrupting strength needed to keep operations running safely and efficiently.
