Product FAQs
5 answersIs the Siemens BQD260 HACR rated?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, making it suitable for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
Can the BQD260 be reverse fed?
Yes, Siemens BQD circuit breakers are suitable for reverse feed applications.
Can I use the BQD260 on an ungrounded or corner-grounded 480V Delta system?
No. The BQD260 has a slash voltage rating of 480Y/277VAC, meaning it is only suitable for solidly grounded Wye systems. It is not rated for 3-phase 480V Delta applications.
What is the difference between the Siemens BQD260 and CQD260?
Both are 60A, 2-pole breakers with identical electrical ratings, but they have different mounting styles. The BQD260 is a bolt-on breaker for Siemens panelboards, while the CQD260 is designed for DIN rail or surface mounting.
Can the BQD260 be used as a main breaker in a Siemens P1 panelboard?
Yes, but when used as a back-fed main breaker, it requires a separate hold-down kit (such as the Siemens MBKBFA) to secure it to the panelboard in compliance with electrical code.
