NOTES
1 Breakers to hold 100% and must trip at 150% of rated current and greater within the time limit shown in this curve.
2 Breakers to hold 100% and must trip at 135% of rated current and greater within the time limits shown in this curve.
3 Curve data shown represents breaker response at ambient temperature of 77F (25C) with no preloading. Breakers are mounted in standard wall mount position.
4 The minimum inrush pulse tolerance handling capacity on the above standard delays is 12 times rated current based on a 60 Hz, 1/2 cycle 8 ms pulse for delay curves 22, 24, 32
and 34 and is 18 times rated current up to 20 amps; 14 times rated current up to 25 amps based on a 60Hz, 1/2 cycle 8 ms pulse for delay curves 92 and 94.

Q-Series Rocker Actuator
The Q-Series magnetic circuit breakers are designed for those
demanding applications where space, aesthetics and snap-in
front panel mounting are important. Available in a choice of
rocker actuator styles and colors including the Visi-Rocker two-
color actuators as well as non-illuminated or illuminated versions
with LED or neon bulbs. The exclusive Rockerguard bezel helps
prevent inadvertent actuation. Wiping contact design insures
long term reliability. Various styling options allow design
flexibility.
1-2 poles, 0.02 to 25 amps, up to 250 VAC or 65 VDC. Available
with a choice of time delays, terminals, actuator styles and
colors.
