Product FAQs
5 answers
What is the difference between the Siemens BQ2B125 and the BQ2B125H?
The primary difference is the interrupting capacity. The standard BQ2B125 is rated at 10kAIC at 240V, while the BQ2B125H features a high-interrupting rating of 22kAIC at 240V.
Which panelboards are compatible with the BQ2B125H circuit breaker?
This breaker is designed for use in Siemens P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 series panelboards. It features a bolt-on connection that mounts directly to the panelboard bus.
Can the BQ2B125H be reverse fed?
Yes. Because it features a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit, this breaker is suitable for reverse feed applications in accordance with UL 489 standards.
Does this breaker require a hold-down kit when used as a back-fed main?
No. Because the BQ2B125H is a bolt-on circuit breaker, it is inherently secured to the panelboard bus and does not require an additional hold-down kit like plug-on breakers do.
What type of protection does the LI trip function provide?
The fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit includes Long-Time (L) protection to handle electrical overloads and Instantaneous (I) protection to clear short-circuit faults.
