Product FAQs
6 answersWhat does the S01 suffix indicate on the BQD36000S01 breaker?
The S01 suffix means this breaker includes a factory-installed 120VAC shunt trip. This allows the breaker to be tripped remotely for emergency shutdown or control applications.
Can I install the BQD36000S01 in a standard residential load center?
No. This is a bolt-on molded case circuit breaker designed exclusively for Siemens commercial panelboards, specifically the P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 series. It will not fit into standard residential plug-on or bolt-on load centers.
What are the conductor requirements for wiring the BQD36000S01?
The factory-installed load lugs accept 8 to 1 AWG copper (Cu) or 6 to 1/0 AWG aluminum (Al) conductors. The terminals are rated for use with 60C or 75C wire.
Is the BQD36000S01 suitable for HVAC equipment and reverse feeding?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment. It is also approved for reverse feed applications, allowing it to be used as a main breaker or back-fed device.
Can I substitute a CQD series breaker for this BQD model?
No. While BQD and CQD frames share similar electrical characteristics, BQD breakers feature a bolt-on connection for panelboards. CQD breakers are designed for DIN rail mounting and will not mount correctly in P-series panelboards.
How does the factory-installed shunt trip operate?
The internal shunt trip coil requires a 120VAC control voltage. When voltage is applied to the coil via an external switch, relay, or fire alarm system, it mechanically trips the breaker to open the circuit and disconnect power.
