Panelboard Ratings

Refer to local codes and standards for more information. The series rated system label is located in the bag assembly.


Series Connected Circuit Breaker Ratings (RMS Symmetrical)

  • Series Ratings listed at higher system voltages apply to lower system voltages (Example: 240 3P/3W covers 208Y/120 3P/4W).

  • Short circuit tests are conducted at 100–105% of the maximum rated voltage of the panelboard.

  • “MC” denotes Mission Critical circuit breakers.

  • Where LG is shown, LJ and LL can be used.

  • Unless otherwise noted, main circuit breakers can be applied at the maximum available amperage rating.

  • Suffixes HID, SWD, and SWN may also be applied to the applicable branch circuit breakers shown below.

  • Where QO(B) circuit breakers are shown below, QO(B)H, QO(B)VH, and QH(B) circuit breakers may also be used.

  • Two-pole CAFI circuit breakers cannot be used on three-phase systems.

CE Marking

  • Interiors with the “CE” mark meet the IEC 61439-1 and IEC 61439-2 standards.

  • Main lug interiors with the “CE” mark have been tested to withstand 10,000 RMS symmetrical amperes for 30 cycles.

  • Interiors with the “CE” mark are only approved for use with QOXD or QOBXD branch circuit breakers which carry the “CE” mark.

QO2150VH, QO2175VH and QO2200VH Restrictions

NOTICE
HAZARD OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
  • Do not install QO2150(VH), QO2175(VH) or QO2200(VH) in seismic applications.
  • Do not install QO2150(VH), QO2175(VH) or QO2200(VH) in three phase system applications.
  • Do not install more than a total of four QO2175(VH) or QO2200(VH) on NEMA 1 enclosures.
  • Do not install more than one QO2175(VH) or QO2200(VH) in NEMA 3R Vented Weatherproof enclosures.
  • Do not install QO2150(VH), QO2175(VH) or QO2200(VH) adjacent to each other.
  • Do not install in un-vented weatherproof enclosures (3R/5/12, 4/4X).
  • For QO2175(VH) and QO2200(VH) circuit breakers install three-point latch trims.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

Leave at least four circuit spaces of blank fillers or circuit breakers of 125 A or lower before another QO2150(VH), QO2175(VH) or QO2200(VH) is installed.

Place QO2150(VH), QO2175(VH) and QO2200(VH) next to line end, on the right side for top incoming applications.

Place QO2150(VH), QO2175(VH) and QO2200(VH) next to line end, on the left side for bottom incoming applications.

QO2150(VH), QO2175(VH) and QO2200(VH) for single phase applications only.
