The Square D QOB370S is a bolt-on, 3-pole 70A 250V breaker from the QOB series, designed for use in Square D QO panelboards and commercial/industrial loadcentres that accept bolt-on style breakers. It is not a plug-in residential breaker — the bolt-on design makes it suited for commercial panelboards rather than standard QO residential loadcentres. The integrated shunt trip requires a control voltage connection (typically 120V or 240V — confirm your coil voltage before ordering).

The shunt trip is a built-in coil mechanism that allows the breaker to be tripped remotely via an electrical signal — for example, from a fire alarm system, emergency stop button, or building automation system. When the control voltage is applied to the shunt trip terminals, the breaker immediately opens, cutting power to the circuit. Make sure your control circuit voltage matches the shunt trip coil rating specified on the breaker label before installation.
Yes — the QOB370S is physically compatible with the same bolt-on positions as a standard QOB370, so it can be used as a direct replacement. However, since it includes a shunt trip coil, you'll need to either connect the shunt trip wiring or leave it unused (it will still function as a standard breaker). Always verify your panel's bolt-on breaker spacing and bus compatibility before swapping.
Absolutely — Northern Breaker Group specializes in sourcing obsolete and hard-to-find Square D breakers across Canada. The QOB370S with shunt trip is a less common configuration that may not be readily available through standard channels.
