Product FAQs
6 answers
Which panelboards and load centers are compatible with the Q2100HH breaker?
This breaker is designed for use in Siemens P1 panelboards and standard Siemens load centers, including PL and ES series enclosures, that accept Type HQP plug-in circuit breakers.
What does the HH suffix in the Q2100HH catalog number indicate?
The HH designates this as a Type HQP breaker with an ultra-high interrupting rating of 65kAIC at 240V. This provides a higher fault current withstand capability compared to standard 10kAIC or 22kAIC versions.
What wire sizes and materials are accepted by the lugs on this 100A breaker?
The terminals accept 4 AWG to 1/0 AWG copper wire, or 2 AWG to 1/0 AWG aluminum wire. Ensure the connections are torqued to the manufacturer specifications printed directly on the breaker label.
Does the Q2100HH use a plug-in or bolt-on mounting connection?
The Q2100HH is a Type HQP breaker, which utilizes a plug-in connection for Siemens load centers. If you need a bolt-on breaker for a commercial panelboard, you will need the B2100HH instead.
Can the Q2100HH be used to replace a standard Q2100 or Q2100H breaker?
Yes. The Q2100HH shares the exact same physical dimensions and plug-in mounting style as the standard Q2100 and Q2100H. It serves as a direct drop-in replacement while upgrading the short-circuit interrupting rating to 65kAIC.
Is the Q2100HH suitable for protecting HVAC equipment?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated. It is fully approved to provide branch circuit protection for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment requiring a 100A, 2-pole disconnect.
