Operating within the SENTRON family, the Siemens CQD370 provides essential overcurrent protection for commercial facilities. This 70-amp, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker features a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip mechanism to safeguard electrical systems. The versatile housing mounts onto standard DIN rails or installs into Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards. With a 14 kAIC rating at 480Y/277VAC and 65 kAIC at 240VAC, this HACR-rated breaker supports reverse feed applications.
What is the difference between Siemens CQD and BQD circuit breakers?
While both share the same frame size and trip characteristics, they use different mounting methods. The CQD series, including the CQD370, is designed for 35mm DIN rail mounting with feed-thru cable connections. The BQD series is designed to bolt directly onto the busbars of Siemens panelboards.
How is the CQD370 secured inside an enclosure?
This breaker is designed to snap onto a standard 35mm DIN rail. It utilizes a feed-thru connection design, meaning it has mechanical lugs on both the line and load sides for direct wire termination rather than bolting to a panelboard bus.
Can I install accessories like a shunt trip on the CQD370?
Yes, the Siemens CQD frame supports various internal accessories. You can install compatible shunt trips, such as 120V or 240V versions, and auxiliary switches to integrate the breaker into your control and automation circuits.
Is the CQD370 circuit breaker suitable for reverse feeding?
Yes. Standard thermal magnetic breakers in the CQD series do not have restricted line and load orientation, meaning they can be safely reverse fed if required by your specific application or enclosure layout.
