Delivering combination arc-fault protection, this 20-amp single-pole breaker meets modern NEC requirements for residential living spaces. The unit utilizes thermal-magnetic trip technology alongside advanced electronic sensing to detect hazardous arcing conditions. It installs into Siemens plug-on neutral load centers, completely eliminating the need for a traditional pigtail connection.
What load centers are compatible with the Q120AFCNL?
This breaker requires a Siemens Plug-On Neutral load center, such as the SN or PN Series. It will not work in older legacy panels like the EQ series because it does not have a neutral pigtail.
How does the plug-on neutral design affect installation?
The Q120AFCNL eliminates the traditional neutral pigtail wire. It connects directly to the neutral bus bar when seated in a compatible panel, reducing wiring clutter and saving gutter space.
What is the difference between the Q120AFCNL and the Q120AFC?
The Q120AFCNL is the Plug-On Neutral version designed for modern Siemens SN and PN Series load centers. The Q120AFC is the pigtail version, which must be used in older panels that lack a plug-on neutral bus.
What type of arcing does this combination arc fault breaker detect?
As a Combination Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (CAFCI), it detects both series and parallel arcing conditions to help prevent electrical fires, meeting NEC requirements for residential living areas.
Does the Q120AFCNL provide ground fault protection?
No, this model provides arc fault protection only. If a circuit requires both arc fault and ground fault protection, a Dual Function breaker is required instead.
