Description
1-Pole Q-Line Plug-In Circuit Breakers
ABB Q-Line 1-Pole Plug-In Circuit Breakers are designed for compatible electrical distribution and panelboard applications requiring single-pole branch circuit protection. This product family includes 15A, 20A, 30A, 40A, and 50A configurations.
Small details.
Big decisions.
Look beyond the amp rating. These four checks help narrow the right breaker configuration.
MISSION.A little precision. A smarter selection.
Current Selection
This Q-Line group offers 15A, 20A, 30A, 40A and 50A configurations. Match the circuit requirement and conductor sizing to the selected rating.
1-Pole Plug-In Design
The breaker uses a 1-pole plug-in configuration for approved distribution equipment. Confirm the bus connection and physical mounting arrangement.
Equipment-Specific Selection
Use the breaker only in an approved panelboard or load-center configuration. The family name alone does not establish complete equipment compatibility.
Voltage & Fault Rating
Check the voltage and interrupting rating for the exact catalog number. Compare the applicable rating to the installation’s available fault current.
Before you select
Match the circuit. Check the fit.Rating & Protection
Match the ampere rating, pole count and required protection functions to the circuit. Use the exact breaker configuration specified for the application.
Electrical Ratings
Confirm system voltage and interrupting capacity against the installation requirements. Ratings must be checked for the selected catalog number.
Fit & Connections
Confirm the approved panelboard or load center, mounting style, terminal requirements and neutral connection before replacing a breaker.

Important Product Questions
Can I replace a breaker using only the same amp rating?
No. Match the catalog number, poles, voltage, interrupting capacity, protection functions and equipment approval. Equal amperage alone does not establish interchangeability.
What can prevent a physically similar breaker from being suitable?
A different bus connection, neutral arrangement, voltage rating or protection function can rule out a replacement. Check the exact panelboard or load-center requirements.
What details help confirm the correct replacement?
Provide the existing breaker catalog number, equipment identification, circuit rating and required protection type. Include the neutral and mounting arrangement where applicable.
Important Model Distinction
Ampere rating, pole count, trip function, neutral connection, operating voltage and interrupting capacity depend on the selected catalog number. Similar appearance does not establish equipment compatibility.
