Product FAQs
6 answersWhat does the 00S01 suffix indicate on this Siemens breaker?
The 00S01 suffix means this breaker features a factory-installed 120VAC shunt trip. This allows the breaker to be tripped remotely by applying a 120V control signal, which is commonly used for emergency shutdowns or automated control.
What type of panelboard connection does the BQ2B06000S01 require?
This breaker features a bolt-on connection. It is designed specifically for Siemens panelboards that accept bolt-on BQ frame breakers and will not fit in standard plug-on load centers.
What wire sizes are supported by the terminals on this 60A breaker?
The standard load lugs accept 8 to 1 AWG copper conductors or 6 to 1/0 AWG aluminum conductors.
Is the trip unit on the BQ2B06000S01 adjustable?
No, this breaker uses a thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed long-time and instantaneous trip functions. The trip settings cannot be modified in the field.
Are line-side lugs included with this breaker?
No, standard Siemens BQ circuit breakers are supplied with load-side lugs only. If your installation requires line-side lugs, a different catalog number with an L suffix is required.
Is this breaker suitable for HVAC equipment?
Yes, Siemens BQ frame breakers are HACR rated, making them approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
