QOT Tandem Circuit Breakers
Resolution:
The term "piggy back" breaker is sometimes used as a reference to our older design of tandem breakers that had the handles above and below each other (see "old style" in picture below). In the 1980s, the breakers were redesigned, and since then have been manufactured with handles side by side (see "current style" in the picture below). The catalog numbers of the current style are QOT1515, QOT1520, and QOT2020 (same as the old style catalog numbers). The current style QOT will physically fit in the same place as the old style QOT. The old style with the handles on top and bottom are no longer available.
