Description
Built to handle higher fault currents, the Siemens Q215AFH provides 15-amp, two-pole branch/feeder AFCI protection against parallel arcing in residential systems. This plug-on breaker utilizes a standard pigtail neutral connection and mounts into traditional Siemens load centers. It is a legacy model replaced by the Q215AFCH. Featuring a 22 kAIC interrupting rating at 120/240V, this thermal-magnetic breaker provides robust defense for demanding applications.Specifications

Product FAQs
5 answersWhat load centers are compatible with the Q215AFH?
This plug-in breaker is designed for use in Siemens EQ, Ultimate, PL, and ES series load centers that accept QP or Q-frame type breakers.
What does the H in the Q215AFH catalog number indicate?
The H designates a higher interrupting rating. While standard Q215AF breakers are rated at 10kAIC, the Q215AFH is rated for 22kAIC at 120/240VAC.
How is the neutral connection made for this AFCI breaker?
The Q215AFH features a pigtail neutral wire that must be connected directly to the neutral bus bar in the load center for the arc fault circuitry to function correctly.
What type of arc fault protection does the Q215AFH provide?
The Q215AFH is a Branch/Feeder AFCI. It is designed to detect line-to-neutral and line-to-ground arcing faults, distinguishing it from newer Combination AFCI models that also detect series arcing.
Can the Q215AFH replace a standard Q215H breaker?
Yes, the Q215AFH can replace a standard 2-pole 15A Q215H breaker if you need to add arc fault protection to an existing circuit to comply with updated National Electrical Code requirements.
