What is the Purpose of Two Clips Under the QO/QOB Switch Neutral Common Trip Breakers?

Issue: Identifying the purpose of two clips under the QO/QOB switch neutral common trip breakers

Product Line: QO and QOB Miniature Circuit Breakers

Resolution:

The two clips or stabs under the QO/QOB switch neutral common trip circuit breakers need to be connected on the load center's bus bar.

The purpose of this breaker type is to provide overcurrent and short circuit protection for electrical systems while also ensuring that the neutral conductor is disconnected if the corresponding ungrounded (hot) conductor is disconnected. This helps to prevent potential hazards and ensure the safety of the electrical system.
