Questions & Answers
Will this work with a P3030B1100CU Panel. It seems impossible to actually find anything from Sie...
Asked by BreakerList November 14, 2020Yes. The wiring diagram lists the QPF breaker (please see link). There is a UL substitution letter authorizing installation of the QPF2. For a copy of the letter please send a request to productselection.us@siemens.com. https://www.downloads.siemens.com/download-center/Download.aspx?pos=download&fct=getasset&id1=BTLV_39476
will this meet the new 2020 GFCI code for powering a mini split AC unit I think it is section 201.8
Asked by roju611 July 23, 2020Yes, QF220AP meets the requirement.
Can I replace two single pole type QP breakers with one of these? I want to change both breakers...
Asked by Coop May 3, 2020Single pole breakers are typically used for 120-volt circuits. 2 pole breakers are typically used for 240-volt circuits to supply 240v power to larger appliances like electric dryers and ranges. If you are replacing two single pole breakers, that are being used with 120-volt circuits, you should replace those existing single pole breakers with individual single pole GFCI breakers. The single pole version of the QF220AP would be QF120AP.
Is this considered a 220-240v, 15a, 50/60hz gfci breaker?
Asked by Aaron April 29, 2020In as much as 220V in the US consists of 2 poles of 110V AC of opposite phase, and this is a 2 pole breaker, yes. Technically all 220V breakers in residential service in the US consist of 2 110V breakers with a common actuator, controlling opposite phases of 110V.
Will this breaker fit in a Circa 1986 100 amp 220v ITE breaker box
Asked by Don February 2, 2020Approval, not just fit, would be the issue. The UL substitution letter for the Type QPF2 is contingent on Type QPF approval. If your load center label does not list the QPF then the QPF2 would not be approved. For a copy of the letter please send a request to productselection.us@siemens.com.
Is this the replacement for the Siemans GFTCB 220 double pole 20 amp
Asked by LDO November 23, 2019We have no record of a designation Type GFTCB. Please submit a separate request with specific label information or send pictures of the breaker, label and panel label to productselection.us@siemens.com.
Can this be used with a 240V load that has no neutral?
Asked by Barry April 12, 2019Yes, no neutral connection would be made for a 240V load. Correct, the pig tail would still be connected to the neutral bus for proper operation.
Will this breaker work with 8 Gauge wire? 6 Gauge?
Asked by Valkyrie April 4, 2019Yes, QF230A accepts #6 AWG to #14 AWG wire in both copper and aluminum. See breaker label for different torque settings.
Will this fit in a Gould service panel box?
Asked by Geo October 29, 2018No, these would not fit into the Gould Service panel boxes. The Gould series has been obsolete for many years now, and there are no longer replacement parts available. You would need to remove one of the existing circuit breakers from the panel, and search for similar series breaker if still available.
Will this fit in any SIEMENS panel?
Asked by ST September 27, 2018Yes ,standard residential panels, but some panel have set a limited number of locations within the box for use of double pole breakers.
