Product FAQs
4 answers
What is the difference between the Siemens B120 and the B120H circuit breakers?
The primary difference is the interrupting capacity. The B120H is a high-interrupting model rated at 22kAIC, while the standard B120 is rated at 10kAIC. Both breakers share the same physical footprint and bolt-on mounting mechanism.
Can this breaker be installed in standard residential load centers?
No. The B120H is a bolt-on commercial breaker designed specifically for Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards. Standard residential load centers typically require plug-on style circuit breakers.
Will the Siemens B120H directly replace older ITE or Gould models?
Yes. Because Siemens acquired the ITE and Gould product lines, the modern Siemens B120H serves as a direct, interchangeable replacement for legacy ITE and Gould B120H bolt-on circuit breakers.
What specialized applications is the B120H rated to handle?
This breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is certified for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment. It also carries an SWD (Switching Duty) rating, which allows it to be used as a regular switch for 120V fluorescent lighting circuits.
