Engineered for commercial and industrial applications, this 80A three-pole QP series device includes a factory-installed 120VAC shunt trip for remote power disconnection. It installs into standard Siemens load centers and panelboards requiring a plug-on configuration. Delivering a 10kAIC rating at 240V, the unit features thermal-magnetic trip technology and carries an HACR rating for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
What is the difference between the Siemens Q380 and the Q38000S01?
The Q38000S01 includes a factory-installed 120V shunt trip for remote power disconnection. The standard Q380 does not have this feature.
How much panel space does the Q38000S01 require?
While it is a 3-pole breaker, the factory-installed shunt trip requires an additional pole space. It takes up four standard 1-inch spaces in the panel, though the fourth space does not connect to the bus bar.
Which load centers are compatible with the Q38000S01 breaker?
This breaker is designed for use in Siemens 3-phase load centers and panelboards that accept Type QP plug-on breakers, such as the PL, ES, and G series panels.
Can I use this breaker in an Eaton or GE panel?
No. While some panels may physically accept Type QP breakers, the Q38000S01 is only UL listed for use in approved Siemens load centers and panelboards. Mixing brands can void the UL listing and compromise safety.
How is the 120V shunt trip wired on the Q38000S01?
The shunt trip features external pigtail leads that must be connected to a separate 120V control circuit. When 120V is applied to these leads, the breaker will automatically trip.
Is the Q38000S01 suitable for HVAC equipment?
Yes, this breaker carries an HACR rating, making it suitable for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications.
