Product FAQs

6 answers
Which Siemens panelboards accept the BQD320 circuit breaker?

The BQD320 is a bolt-on molded case circuit breaker designed specifically for installation in Siemens P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 panelboards.

What is the difference between the Siemens BQD320 and CQD320?

Both are 20A, 3-pole breakers with identical interrupting ratings, but they feature different mounting methods. The BQD320 is a bolt-on breaker for panelboards, whereas the CQD320 is designed for standard DIN rail or surface mounting inside control panels.

Can the BQD320 be used in reverse feed applications?

Yes, Siemens BQD frame breakers are suitable for reverse feed applications. If you are using the BQD320 as a back-fed main breaker in a Siemens P1 panelboard, you must install an MBKBFA hold-down kit to comply with electrical codes.

Is the BQD320 suitable for 480V corner-grounded delta systems?

No. Siemens BQD circuit breakers are not suitable for 3-phase, 480V AC grounded B-phase delta applications. They are designed for use on standard 240V AC systems or solidly grounded wye systems up to 480Y/277V AC.

Is this breaker rated for switching lighting circuits?

The BQD320 is HID marked, making it approved for switching High-Intensity Discharge lighting loads. However, note that the SWD (Switching Duty) rating only applies to 1-pole 15A and 20A BQD breakers, so this 3-pole model is not SWD rated.

Is the BQD320 HACR rated for HVAC equipment?

Yes, all multi-pole Siemens BQD breakers up to 100A carry an HACR marking. This certifies the BQD320 for safe use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration group motor equipment.
