Eaton Cutler-Hammer QCR2060 Circuit Breaker
The Eaton Cutler-Hammer QCR2060 is a rugged 2-pole 60-amp circuit breaker engineered for high-performance power distribution within rear-connecting panelboards and specialized industrial control assemblies. This thermal-magnetic breaker provides reliable overcurrent protection and switching for 120/240V AC circuits, featuring a 10k AIC interrupting rating standard for light commercial and heavy-duty residential demands. Designed with a bolt-on mounting mechanism, the QCR2060 ensures a low-resistance, vibration-resistant connection to the busbar, which is critical for 60A branch circuits serving HVAC equipment, sub-panels, or motor loads. The Cutler-Hammer QCR series is specifically utilized in applications where a secure mechanical attachment is required over standard plug-on alternatives. When replacing legacy components, verify your panelboard compatibility to ensure the rear-connecting line-side terminals align with your specific enclosure bus structure. This unit facilitates precise overload protection and instantaneous trip response during short-circuit events to maintain system integrity.
Key Technical Benefits:
- Secure Bolt-On Design: Engineered for rear-connection panelboard mounting, providing superior mechanical stability compared to plug-in breakers.
- Dual-Pole 60A Capacity: Efficiently handles 120/240V heavy-duty loads, making it ideal for HVAC compressor circuits and large appliances.
- Thermal-Magnetic Trip Curve: Combines long-time thermal protection for sustained overloads with high-speed magnetic sensing for short-circuit protection.
- Industrial-Grade Housing: Built to withstand the thermal stresses of continuous-duty operation in demanding electrical environments.
- 10,000 AIC Rating: Provides essential interrupting capacity to safely manage fault currents within standard distribution systems.
Common Questions:
Can the QCR2060 be used in a standard load center?
No, the QCR2060 is a bolt-on, rear-connecting breaker designed for specific commercial panelboards. It will not fit in load centers designed for type BR or CH plug-on breakers.
Is this breaker suitable for inductive motor loads?
Yes, the 60-amp capacity and thermal-magnetic trip characteristics allow this breaker to handle the high inrush currents typical of condenser units and industrial motors without nuisance tripping.
What is the difference between QCR and QC breakers?
While both are bolt-on, the QCR series features a specific rear-mounting configuration often required in column-width panels or specialized industrial enclosures, whereas standard QC breakers mount differently to the bus.
