HOW TO SELECT THE
RIGHT SQUARE D BREAKER
Icons are located on the packaging of the Arc Fault,
Ground Fault and Dual Function breakers. Dual Function
breakers will include both icons for Arc Fault and Ground
Fault. The yellow “No Pigtail” icon designates Plug-on
Neutral style breakers.
In any of these instances, it is an indication that there
is an issue ON the circuit and NOT with the circuit
breaker itself. (If there is no issue on the circuit to be
diagnosed, tripping after a five second delay would also
be a normal breaker testing operation.)
Eliminate the guesswork with Time Saver Diagnostics
to identify the type of fault that last occurred.
The Time Saver Diagnostics sequence is simple and
easy to use and requires no tools or special training.
Plug-on Neutral load centers and Combination Arc Fault
and Dual Function breakers from Square D simplify
installation, saving you time, labor and cost.
Step 1
Simply turn off the circuit breaker
Step 2
Hold down the Push-To-Test button.
Step 3
Turn the circuit breaker back on.
If the circuit breaker trips immediately,
it is detecting a Fault to Ground.
If the circuit breaker trips after a
2 second delay, it is detecting an Arc Fault.
If the circuit breaker trips after a
5 second delay, it is a thermal overload
or short circuit.
