Questions & Answers
Looking for this product in 3/4 inch. Is it available?
Asked by Dan October 30, 2020It is not. Siemens load centers do not use the 3/4" breaker size. It sounds like you have another manufacturer's load center. Please check with the manufacturer for AFCI offerings that would be UL approved for your load center.
Is this approved for use in a G1224MB1100 Load Center?
Asked by Sparky October 16, 2020Please check the wiring diagram label and verify it lists the Type QPF GFCI in the branch breaker column (for G1224MB1100 it should be listed). If so, yes, there are UL substitution letters authorizing the Type QAF2 AFCI. For the required documentation please send a request to productselection.us@siemens.com.
Is there any difference in function or performance between this and the Murray version? Internet...
Asked by boost3r May 27, 2020The only difference is fit, and fit is VITAL... buy the right brand for your panel!!!
Treadmill has started randomly tripping Siemens combination AFCI/GFCI breaker that homebuilder installed for bedrooms
Asked by Jacob May 17, 2020QA115AFCP would be the 15A AFCI only offering. Note, however, code requirement may require GFCI protection depending on the area of the home (a garage, for example). There may exceptions, however. We recommend consulting with a licensed electrician familiar with local code.
Will afci 15 breaker work in a Westinghouse panel
Asked by Dav February 20, 2020UL approval, not just fit and function, is the issue. Please contact Eaton for guidance on approved breakers for your Westinghouse panel.
Will this breaker fit in an Eaton panel? I am replacing an Eaton type BR combination AFCI
Asked by Kevin August 9, 2019Breaker approval, not just fit, is the real concern. Please contact Eaton for a list approved breaker types for your panel.
Can this replace a common Siemens Type QP 15 circuit breaker in a Siemens Type 3 Enclosure (MC2040MB1200R)? By code I need to upgrade to AFCI.
Asked by Kappa June 5, 2019Yes. What or whom is requiring you to upgrade your breaker to current code? Your existing breaker is just fine unless you are adding to the circuit but even then, you should only need to afci the additional branch wiring you install and not the entire circuit. There is, of course, nothing wrong with arc fault protecting the entire circuit but often it is best to leave things as they are if they are working.
I'm looking to replace a standard type QP breaker with a AFCI breaker. Will this circuit breaker ...
Asked by Frank April 11, 2019The label should list the Type QPF GFCI breaker for which UL substitution letters will allow the QAF2. These can be provided by sending a request to productselection.us@siemens.com.
Will this work for Siemens QP
Asked by Jay April 4, 2019It depends on the load center you want to install it in. If it is a later model that lists the Type QP chances are it accepts Type QAF2 either by way of its listing on the wiring diagram or via UL substitution letters. Some legacy load centers that accept QP's may not be approved for or accept electronic breakers like the QAF2. With the load center catalog number from the label we can advise further.
Is this compatible (won't void the UL listing) with a Siemens ITE G2020MB1100?
Asked by HomeHound February 20, 2019If the wiring diagram lists the Type QPF GFCI breaker, yes, there are UL substitution letters that authorize use of the Type QAF2 AFCI breaker, which we can provide. Please send a request to productselection.us@siemens.com.
