Product FAQs

5 answers
Which load centers are compatible with the Siemens QF230 GFCI breaker?

This breaker is designed for use in Siemens EQ, ES, PL, and Ultimate series load centers. It requires two standard 1-inch spaces for installation.

What level of ground fault protection does the QF230 provide?

The QF230 provides Class A personnel protection. It is designed to trip when it detects a ground fault current imbalance of 5mA, making it suitable for wet or damp locations.

How is the neutral connection handled on the QF230?

This breaker features a standard pigtail neutral. The coiled white wire must be connected directly to the neutral bus bar in your panel for the ground fault sensing circuitry to function correctly.

Has the Siemens QF230 been replaced by a newer model?

Yes, the QF230 is a legacy catalog number. Siemens has replaced it with the Q230GF and QF230A models, which include updated self-testing features to meet newer UL requirements.

Can I use this breaker for a 240V hot tub or spa circuit?

Yes, as a 2-pole 120/240VAC GFCI breaker, it is commonly used to provide ground fault protection for 240V applications like hot tubs, spas, and large appliances in wet locations.
