The QBHW2050 is an Eaton 2-Pole 50A 240V Bolt-On Circuit Breaker designed for reliable performance and safety. With a 22kA short-circuit current rating, it provides superior protection for your electrical systems. Ideal for various applications, this breaker ensures durable operation and efficient circuit management in residential and commercial settings.
The QBHW2050 is a bolt-on style breaker from Eaton's QBHW series, generally compatible with Eaton/Cutler-Hammer CH (Type-CH) panelboards that accept bolt-on breakers. Compatibility can vary by panel vintage and configuration — send us your panel model number and we'll confirm before you order.
The 22kA short-circuit current rating (SCCR) means this breaker can safely interrupt fault currents up to 22,000 amperes. For most residential and light commercial services in Canada, available fault current is well below this threshold, making the QBHW2050 suitable for a wide range of installations. For larger commercial services, always verify the available fault current at the panel against the breaker's SCCR.
Availability of specific Eaton QBHW series breakers can vary. Northern Breaker Group specializes in obsolete and hard-to-find breakers across Canada, with counter locations in Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver. Contact us for a quote and we'll advise on current stock or sourcing options.
