Built to optimize residential panel space, the Siemens Q24040 is a quadplex breaker that provides two independent 40A circuits. By condensing four poles of protection into a two-pole footprint, it allows for system expansion without requiring a larger enclosure upgrade. This plug-on miniature breaker mounts into Siemens EQ, Ultimate, PL, and ES series load centers. It is replaced by the newer Q24040CT2 model. Rated for 10kA at 120/240VAC, it includes common trip functionality for both pairs.

One of 2 circuits was damaged per corrosion. Installed new CB, fit up was exact and issue was rectified. CB arrived as promised, very reasonably priced and easy to find online.

It's a contactor...
Fast delivery. Good packaging. Good description, so I got what I wanted. ...and, they work.
What more could you ask for?
...not to mention SuperBreakers were the only ones to actually have stock, and at a slight to drastic cost reduction depending on who I compared them to.

Hard to Find Breaker
I had a particularly hard to find breaker, a tandem double pole 40A x 40A.
Lowes and Menards didn't have them so I went online and Superbreakers showed just what I needed in stock at a very reasonable price too. It's installed. May breaker panel has one slot with a non-tandem breaker remaining. Gee! I wonder if Superbreakers.net has triple-breakers?
