Description

Square D breaker by Schneider Electric QO 15 amps circuit breaker is a space and labor-saving device engineered to meet prevailing National Electric Code requirements. This dual function single pole circuit breaker combines two critical technologies, Combination Arc Fault protection and Ground Fault protection (class A), in a single, easy-to-install device. The National Electric Code now requires both Combination Arc Fault and Ground Fault protection on all single pole, 15 amps, and 20 amps kitchen and laundry circuits safety device. Before releasing this electric breaker, a contractor or homeowner’s only choice would have been to use a combination of Arc Fault circuit breaker in conjunction with an expensive, bulky Ground Fault receptacle. The new circuit breaker reduces cost and eliminates the hassle of using two separate devices to provide this essential protection. This electrical component is a win for contractors and homeowners alike. Like all square D circuit breakers, it is integrated with time saver diagnostics, a unique feature that provides additional circuit information and minimizes troubleshooting at the touch of a button.
