Built for residential and commercial applications, the Siemens Q2150BH provides 150 amps of reliable circuit protection. This two-pole molded case circuit breaker features a 22 kAIC interrupt rating at 120/240VAC and utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit for long-time and instantaneous defense. It mounts into compatible Siemens load centers and meter combinations, requiring four panel spaces for installation. The unit serves as an exact substitute for the legacy MPD2150RH breaker.

Product FAQs
7 answers
How many panel spaces does the Siemens Q2150BH require?
Due to its 150A capacity and physical footprint, the Q2150BH requires four standard panel spaces for installation in compatible Siemens load centers and meter combinations.
Which legacy circuit breaker does the Siemens Q2150BH replace?
This unit serves as an exact substitute for the legacy Murray MPD2150RH circuit breaker.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the Q2150BH?
The included load side lugs accept 1/0 AWG to 3/0 AWG copper or aluminum conductors. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation to prevent terminal overheating.
Is the Q2150BH compatible with non-Siemens electrical panels?
No. The Q2150BH is designed and UL listed exclusively for use in compatible Siemens load centers and meter combinations. Installing it in other panel brands violates UL listings and compromises safety.
What does the 22kAIC rating on the Q2150BH indicate?
While standard residential breakers often feature a 10kAIC rating, the 22kAIC rating on this unit means it can safely interrupt up to 22,000 amps of fault current. This higher capacity is often required for commercial applications or homes located close to utility transformers.
Does the Q2150BH feature an adjustable trip setting?
No, this breaker utilizes a fixed thermal magnetic trip unit. It provides factory-calibrated long-time and instantaneous protection and cannot be manually adjusted in the field.
Is the Q2150BH suitable for use with HVAC equipment?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is certified for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires dedicated circuit protection.
