A reliable solution for commercial power distribution, the Siemens BQD220 is a 20-amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker. It fits perfectly into Siemens P1 through P5 panelboards, utilizing a sturdy bolt-on mechanism that prevents loose connections in high-vibration environments. Carrying both HACR and SWD ratings, this device is ideal for switching fluorescent lighting loads and protecting HVAC equipment. It features standard fixed trip units for straightforward operation.
How does the BQD220 install into Siemens panelboards?
It utilizes a bolt-on mounting configuration that fastens directly to the internal bus bars of compatible Siemens P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 distribution panels.
Is the BQD220 suitable for ungrounded 480V Delta systems?
No. The maximum AC voltage rating is 480Y/277VAC, which restricts its use to solidly grounded wye systems. Installing it on an ungrounded or corner-grounded 480V Delta system violates its voltage rating and compromises safety.
What type of wiring is compatible with the factory lugs on the BQD220?
The standard terminal lugs are dual-rated for copper and aluminum conductors. You can terminate 14 to 6 AWG copper wire or 12 to 6 AWG aluminum wire directly to the breaker.
Does the BQD220 allow for field-adjustable trip settings?
No. This breaker features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the long-time overload and instantaneous short-circuit trip thresholds are set at the factory and cannot be modified.
Can the BQD220 be deployed in direct current (DC) circuits?
Yes. While commonly used in alternating current panels, this breaker is fully rated for DC circuits up to 125/250VDC with a 14kA interrupting capacity.
