Overview

The ABB Q Line QB Bolt-On Circuit Breaker (SKU: THHQB22070) is a compact, thermal-magnetic protection device engineered for secure bolt-on installation to load centers and lighting panels. This 1-pole breaker delivers 70A current rating at 240V AC, with a 22,000A interrupting capacity (AIC) for robust fault protection in residential and commercial electrical systems. Each pole occupies just 1-inch of panel space, maximizing installation density without sacrificing performance. Key features include a Quick-make/Quick-break mechanism that minimizes arcing and contact wear, extending operational lifespan. The breaker incorporates common trip bars for multi-pole configurations, ensuring simultaneous tripping to prevent single-phased conditions that can damage sensitive equipment. An easily visible trip indicator provides immediate visual confirmation of fault conditions, reducing troubleshooting time. Designed for versatility, the THHQB22070 supports optional accessories including auxiliary contacts and shunt trips for remote monitoring and control. While primarily rated for standard applications, specific Q Line models are available for High-Intensity Discharge (HID) lighting circuits. The bolt-on connection type ensures a secure, vibration-resistant interface with panel busbars, critical for maintaining reliable electrical contact in high-load environments. Manufactured by ABB Electrification in the US, this breaker meets stringent UL standards for electrical protection. Its compact 1-inch module design allows integration into tight panel spaces while delivering reliable thermal-magnetic tripping characteristics. The 22,000AIC rating provides superior fault current handling compared to standard residential breakers, making it suitable for both new installations and panel upgrades where higher fault currents are expected.
