The Eaton BQL320 is a bolt-on style breaker from Eaton's BQL series, designed to mount in compatible Eaton/Cutler-Hammer bolt-on panelboards and loadcentres that accept the BQL frame. As a 3-pole unit, it requires a three-pole space (3 full spaces) in the panel. Its 10 kA interrupting rating at 240V suits it for both residential service panels and light commercial panelboards with matching or lower available fault current.
Not sure if the BQL320 fits your panel? Send us your panel model number and we'll confirm compatibility.
The BQL320 is designed for Eaton/Cutler-Hammer panelboards that use the bolt-on BQL-series breakers. It is not a plug-in (BR or CH clip-in) style breaker — the panel must specifically call for bolt-on mounting. Panel compatibility can vary, so we recommend sending us your panel's model number so our team can confirm the correct fit before you order.
The BQL320 is typically applied as a branch or feeder circuit breaker within a panelboard. Whether it can serve as a main breaker depends entirely on your panel's design and local code requirements. At 20A/3-pole it is more commonly used for three-phase feeder or equipment circuits (e.g., small motors, HVAC, or commercial loads). Contact us or your local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) to confirm the intended application.
Yes — Northern Breaker Group specialises in hard-to-find and obsolete breakers, and we carry stock of Eaton BQL-series breakers including the BQL320. If you're replacing an existing bolt-on breaker, match the amperage (20A), number of poles (3P), voltage rating (240V), and interrupting rating (10 kA minimum) to ensure a like-for-like replacement.
