A dedicated 30 A, 120 V circuit in a QO panel needs a matching QO breaker. The Square D QO130 is a single-pole, 30 A plug-on miniature circuit breaker rated 120/240 VAC with a 10 kA interrupting rating and thermal-magnetic trip. Its Visi-Trip indicator shows at a glance which breaker has tripped, which is why electricians and service techs like QO panels.
Why electricians pick it
- Visi-Trip window shows a red flag when the breaker trips.
- Plug-on design installs in Square D QO load centres and NQ panelboards.
- 10 kA interrupting rating for residential and light commercial services.
- Pressure-plate terminal takes 14 to 8 AWG copper or aluminum.
- UL listed and CSA approved.

Pro tip from the counter
When hunting a trip in a crowded QO panel, look for the red Visi-Trip flag instead of flipping handles, then reset by pushing the handle fully to OFF before ON. On a new 30 A circuit, have your electrician confirm the conductors are sized for 30 A (commonly 10 AWG copper) before landing them on this breaker.
Best for: dedicated 30 A 120 V circuits, QO load centre replacements, residential service upgrades, light commercial panels
