Product FAQs
6 answersWhat does the "00S01" suffix on the Siemens B12000S01 catalog number indicate?
The "00S01" suffix denotes a factory-installed 120V AC shunt trip mechanism. This allows the circuit breaker to be opened remotely by a control circuit, which is commonly required for emergency shutdown systems or equipment interlocks.
Can I add a shunt trip in the field to a standard Siemens B120 breaker instead of buying this model?
No. Shunt trips and other internal accessories for Siemens BL-frame breakers are installed at the factory. A standard breaker cannot be safely modified in the field to add a shunt trip.
Which Siemens panelboards will accept the B12000S01 bolt-on breaker?
This BL-type breaker is designed to bolt directly into Siemens P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 series panelboards.
What voltage is required to activate the remote shunt trip?
The internal shunt trip coil on this specific breaker requires a 120V AC control voltage to activate. Applying an incorrect control voltage can damage the internal coil or fail to open the circuit during an emergency.
Is the B12000S01 rated for use with heating and cooling equipment?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated. This means it is certified to handle the specific inrush currents and operational demands of heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
Can I use this 20-amp breaker as a switch for fluorescent lighting?
Yes. Siemens 15-amp and 20-amp BL breakers carry an SWD (Switching Duty) rating, making them suitable for the daily switching of fluorescent lighting loads without prematurely degrading the contacts.
