Product FAQs

5 answers
What is the difference between the Siemens CQD345 and the BQD345?

Both are 45A, 3-pole breakers in the same frame family, but they feature different mounting styles. The CQD345 is designed for DIN rail mounting in OEM panels and control enclosures, while the BQD345 is a bolt-on breaker used primarily in Siemens panelboards.

What type of DIN rail is required to mount the CQD345?

This breaker is designed to snap directly onto standard 35mm DIN rail, making it suitable for industrial control panels, automation equipment, and custom OEM enclosures.

Can the CQD345 be used in direct current applications?

Yes, this breaker is rated for use in DC circuits up to 125/250VDC, providing a 14kA interrupting capacity for those specific applications.

Are the terminal lugs included with this breaker?

Yes, the CQD345 comes with factory-installed feed-thru lugs on both the line and load sides. The lugs are rated to accept 8 to 1 AWG copper wire or 6 to 1/0 AWG aluminum wire.

Can I install the CQD345 in a standard Siemens load center?

No, this breaker is strictly for DIN rail mounting. It will not fit in standard residential or commercial Siemens load centers that require plug-on or bolt-on branch breakers.
