Rated 22 kAIC at 120/240V, this two-pole GFCI breaker delivers 5mA personnel protection for residential and commercial applications. The Siemens QF250H features a pigtail neutral and thermal-magnetic trip technology to safeguard against overloads, short circuits, and ground faults. Mounts into Siemens EQ, EQL, SEQ, EQG, PL, and ES series load centers using a standard plug-on connection. This unit is HACR rated and includes self-test capabilities. Note: Replaced by the newer QF250AH model.

Product FAQs
6 answers
What is the difference between the Siemens QF250 and the QF250H?
The primary difference is the short circuit interrupting rating. The standard QF250 is rated for 10 kAIC, while the QF250H features a high interrupting capacity of 22 kAIC at 120/240VAC.
Is there a direct replacement for the QF250H?
Yes, the QF250H has been superseded by the QF250AH. The newer AH version includes an automated self-test feature to ensure continuous safety compliance, while maintaining the same 50A rating and 22 kAIC interrupting capacity.
What level of ground fault protection does the QF250H provide?
The QF250H provides Class A ground fault protection, which is designed for personnel safety. It will trip and de-energize the circuit when a ground fault of 5mA or greater is detected.
How many panel spaces does the QF250H require?
As a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker, the QF250H requires two standard 1-inch spaces in a compatible Siemens load center.
How is the neutral connection handled on this GFCI breaker?
The QF250H features a pigtail neutral wire. This coiled white wire must be connected directly to the neutral bus bar in your load center to power the internal ground fault circuitry.
Which load centers are approved for use with the QF250H?
This plug-on breaker is compatible with Siemens EQ, EQL, SEQ, EQG, PL, and ES Series load centers.
