Designed for demanding commercial and industrial environments, the Siemens Q215HH delivers 15A of thermal-magnetic protection with a high 65kAIC interrupt rating. It safely clears severe electrical faults to protect critical branch circuits. This HQP type breaker mounts into Siemens load centers and panelboards using a standard plug-on connection. It is the drop-in replacement for the HQP2015. The unit is Switching Duty (SWD) rated for fluorescent lighting and HACR rated for HVAC equipment.

Product FAQs
6 answers
What does the HH suffix indicate on the Siemens Q215HH?
The HH suffix designates a high interrupting rating of 65kAIC at 240V. This provides significantly higher fault current protection compared to the standard Q215 rated at 10kAIC or the Q215H rated at 22kAIC.
Which electrical panels accept the Q215HH circuit breaker?
This Type QP breaker is compatible with current Siemens PL, ES, PN, and SN series load centers. It is also backward compatible with legacy ITE and Gould EQ series panels that specify Type QP breakers.
Can the Q215HH replace an older ITE Q215 breaker?
Yes. Siemens acquired ITE and Gould, and current Siemens QP breakers are the direct, UL listed replacements for legacy ITE Type QP breakers. The Q215HH will fit the same physical footprint while offering a higher 65kAIC rating.
Is the Q215HH suitable for HVAC equipment?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires HACR type overcurrent protection.
Does this breaker require a plug-on neutral panel?
No. Because the Q215HH is a standard thermal magnetic breaker without AFCI or GFCI electronics, it does not require a plug-on neutral connection or a neutral pigtail. It simply snaps onto the hot bus bars.
How much panel space does the Q215HH require?
As a full size 2-pole breaker, it requires two standard 1-inch spaces in the load center. It cannot be installed in a single 1-inch space like a tandem breaker.
