Oct 28, 2024 · Single-pole breakers are designed for 120-volt circuits, typically used in standard household applications such as lighting and outlets. They offer critical protection against overloads and short circuits, significantly reducing the risk of electrical fires.

The Square D by Schneider Electric Homeline 20 Amp One-Pole Circuit Breaker is used for overload and short-circuit protection of your electrical system. This breaker is compatible with Homeline load centers and CSED devices.

Nov 27, 2023 · A single-pole breaker is the most common type of circuit breaker used in residential and commercial buildings. It aims to protect a single circuit, controlling the flow of electricity to a specific area or appliance.

Jan 9, 2025 · Single-pole breakers are typically used for low-power appliances, as they can provide 15 to 20 Ampereges and 120 Volts. Double-pole breakers protect heavy machines, as they can provide 20 to 60 Ampereges and 240Volts. You’ll need to install both breaker types in your electrical panel to run household appliances and lighter machines simultaneously.

The Square D by Schneider Electric QO 20 Amp One-Pole Circuit Breaker is intended for overload and short-circuit protection of your electrical system. The ANSI-certified and UL-listed unit is rated for 120/240 VAC and 10,000 AIR.
