Built for industrial applications, the Siemens BQ2B015H delivers robust thermal-magnetic trip protection. This 15A, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker is designed to safeguard commercial branch circuits against overloads and short circuits. The unit installs firmly into Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards using a secure bolt-on connection. This mounting style is preferred in commercial settings to prevent accidental disconnection. It features a 22kAIC interrupting rating at 120/240VAC.
What does the H suffix mean in the BQ2B015H catalog number?
The H indicates a high interrupting rating. The BQ2B015H provides 22kAIC at 240VAC, compared to the standard BQ2B015 which is rated for 10kAIC.
Which Siemens panelboards accept the BQ2B015H breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is compatible with Siemens P1, P2, and P3 series commercial panelboards.

Yes, the BQ2B015H is HACR rated, making it approved for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration motor loads.
What trip technology is used in the BQ2B015H?
It utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit with long-time and instantaneous (LI) functions to protect against overloads and short circuits.
Are the trip settings on the BQ2B015H adjustable?
No, this breaker features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit, meaning the long-time and instantaneous trip thresholds cannot be modified in the field.
How does the BQ2B015H mount to the panelboard?
It features a bolt-on connection, requiring it to be mechanically fastened directly to the panelboard bus for a secure, vibration-resistant installation.
