Built for heavy-duty applications, the Siemens QJ22B200H is a 2-pole molded case circuit breaker. It delivers thermal-magnetic protection for 240VAC systems requiring a 200A capacity. The bolt-on device is engineered to fit Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards, as well as meter centers. This model is replaced by the QR22B200H series. Featuring an extra-high interrupting capacity of 42kAIC at 240VAC, it safely clears severe faults. It includes fixed LI trip functions and is HACR rated.

Product FAQs
7 answers
Which Siemens panelboards are compatible with the QJ22B200H breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is engineered specifically for Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards. It can also be installed in Siemens meter centers and standalone enclosures designed for QJ frame breakers.
What is the modern replacement for the legacy QJ22B200H?
Siemens has transitioned from the legacy QJ frame to the newer QR frame. The direct replacement is the QR22B200H. Note that installing a QR breaker in an older panelboard may require a specific SQRC retrofit field kit to adapt the deadfront and mounting hardware.
What does the H in the QJ22B200H catalog number indicate?
The H designates this as an extra-high interrupting capacity breaker. While standard QJ breakers are rated for 10kAIC, the QJ22B200H is rated to safely clear severe faults up to 42,000 amps (42kAIC) at 240VAC.
Are the thermal and magnetic trip settings adjustable on the QJ22B200H?
No, this breaker features a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed long-time and fixed instantaneous (LI) trip functions. The settings cannot be adjusted in the field.
What are the conductor requirements for the QJ22B200H lugs?
The factory-installed load lugs accept both copper and aluminum conductors. The supported wire range is 6 AWG to 300 kcmil for copper, and 4 AWG to 300 kcmil for aluminum.
Can the QJ22B200H be reverse fed?
Yes, this breaker is reverse feed capable, allowing it to be used as a main breaker or back-fed device in compatible panels without requiring a specific line or load orientation.
Is the QJ22B200H suitable for HVAC equipment?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires a 200A overcurrent protection device.
