Product FAQs
7 answersWhat panelboards are compatible with the BQ1B060?
The BQ1B060 is a bolt-on circuit breaker designed for use in compatible Siemens commercial panelboards and load centers that accept BQ-frame breakers.
What is the difference between Siemens BQ and BL series breakers?
Both are bolt-on breakers used in Siemens panelboards, but they have different physical profiles. The BQ series has a centered bus attachment tab, while the BL series features a low tab design and is the newer standard for modern Siemens panelboards. Verify your panel's requirements before installing.
Are there higher interrupting rating versions of the BQ1B060 available?
Yes. If your application requires a higher short-circuit rating than the standard 10kAIC, you can use the BQ1B060H for 22kAIC or the HB1B060 for 65kAIC protection.
Is the Siemens BQ1B060 suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes. Because this breaker features a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit, it is suitable for reverse feed applications in accordance with UL 489 standards.
Is this circuit breaker HACR rated?
Yes, the Siemens BQ1B060 is HACR rated, making it suitable for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
Can I use the BQ1B060 to replace a GE THQB or Eaton BAB breaker?
While the BQ1B060 is a 1-pole bolt-on breaker, it is specifically designed for Siemens panelboards. It is not UL listed for use in GE or Eaton Cutler-Hammer panels.
Does the BQ1B060 come with load side lugs?
Yes, Siemens BQ series circuit breakers are supplied with load side lugs as standard for your wire terminations.
