Product FAQs

7 answers
Can the Siemens BQD370 be reverse-fed for use as a main breaker?

Yes, Siemens BQD series thermal-magnetic circuit breakers are UL Listed for reverse feed applications. This allows the BQD370 to be utilized as a back-fed main in compatible panelboards, provided the appropriate service entrance barrier kit is installed.

Is this breaker certified for use with commercial HVAC equipment?

Yes, the BQD370 is HACR rated. This means it is tested and approved to handle the inrush currents and operational demands of heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment loads.

Does the breaker come with both line and load-side lugs?

The BQD370 features a bolt-on line side that connects directly to the panelboard bus, so it does not use line-side wire lugs. However, it includes factory-installed load-side lugs that accept 8 to 1 AWG copper or 6 to 1/0 AWG aluminum wire.

Can I use a BQD6 breaker as a drop-in replacement for the BQD370?

No. While they share the same physical frame dimensions, BQD6 breakers (such as the BQD6370) are CSA certified for the Canadian market and rated for 600Y/347VAC. The BQD370 is the correct UL Listed model for 480Y/277VAC systems in the United States.

What is the advantage of the BQD370 bolt-on design in P-Series panels?

The bolt-on connection mechanically fastens directly to the busbars of Siemens P1 through P5 panelboards. This interlocking design provides a highly secure, vibration-resistant connection, which is critical for reducing arcing and maintaining continuity in high-demand commercial environments.

Does the BQD370 have adjustable trip settings?

No, this breaker utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the thermal and magnetic trip elements are factory-set and cannot be field-adjusted to change the trip curve.

What does the LI trip function code on the BQD370 indicate?

The LI designation stands for Long-Time and Instantaneous. The long-time function provides thermal protection against sustained overloads, while the instantaneous magnetic function provides immediate tripping in the event of a severe short circuit.
