Part of the QPF series, this 15A GFCI breaker provides essential 5mA Class A personnel protection for wet or damp locations. The Siemens Q215GF features a 10kAIC rating at 120/240V and includes an automated self-test function to ensure continuous safety compliance. It installs into standard Siemens load centers and panelboards using a plug-on mounting style with a factory-installed pigtail neutral. This unit serves as a direct upgrade for legacy QF215, QF215A, and QF215AP models.
What load centers are compatible with the Q215GF breaker?
This plug-on breaker is designed for use in Siemens EQ, ES, PL, Ultimate, and G series load centers that accept QP or QPF type breakers.
Can I use this breaker in a panel that requires a plug-on neutral?
No. The Q215GF features a pigtail neutral connection and is designed for standard panels. For plug-on neutral load centers, you will need the Q215GFN version.
How is the neutral wire connected for this 2-pole GFCI breaker?
The breaker features a factory-installed white pigtail wire that must be connected directly to the panel neutral bus bar. For 120/240V circuits, the load neutral connects directly to the breaker terminal.
Does a 240V load without a neutral require a load neutral connection on the breaker?
A load neutral is not required for straight 240V circuits. However, the white pigtail must still be connected to the panel neutral bus for the internal ground fault circuitry to operate.
What is the ground fault trip sensitivity for this breaker?
It provides Class A ground fault protection, meaning the sensor is designed to trip when it detects a current imbalance of 4 to 6 milliamps between load conductors.
Does this breaker include an automatic self-test function?
Yes. It includes a self-test feature that continuously monitors the ground fault protection circuitry to ensure proper operation, complying with UL 943 requirements.
What is the difference between the QF215 and the Q215GF?
The Q215GF is the current catalog number that supersedes the older QF215 model. The Q215GF includes updated self-testing features required by modern UL standards.
Is there a version of this 15A GFCI breaker with a higher interrupting rating?
Yes. If your application requires a higher interrupting rating than 10kAIC, the Q215GFH offers 22kAIC and the Q215GFHH offers 65kAIC.
