Part of the Siemens B-frame family, the BF215 is a 2-pole, 15A GFCI circuit breaker designed for commercial and industrial power distribution. It operates at 120/240VAC with a 10kAIC rating, ensuring code-compliant safety in wet environments. This unit mounts into Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards using a sturdy bolt-on configuration. It replaces the legacy BF215A model. The breaker incorporates 5mA Class A ground fault detection, self-test functionality, and is fully HACR rated.
Which panelboards are compatible with the Siemens BF215?
The BF215 is a bolt-on circuit breaker designed specifically for commercial and industrial Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards. It will not fit in standard residential plug-on load centers.
Does the BF215 replace the older BF215A model?
Yes, the Siemens BF215 is the direct replacement for the legacy BF215A. It maintains the same bolt-on mounting, 15A rating, and GFCI specifications for seamless integration into existing panels.
What level of ground fault protection does this breaker provide?
The BF215 features Class A ground fault protection with a 5mA trip sensitivity. This is designed to quickly detect ground faults and de-energize the circuit to protect personnel from electrical shock.
How is the neutral connection wired on the BF215?
This breaker uses a pigtail neutral design. The attached white pigtail wire must be routed and connected directly to the panelboard's neutral bus to ensure the ground fault circuitry functions correctly.
What types of faults will the BF215 trip for?
Equipped with a thermal-magnetic trip unit and GFCI circuitry, the BF215 provides comprehensive protection by tripping during long-time overloads, instantaneous short circuits, and ground faults.
