Product FAQs

5 answers
What equipment is the Siemens QJ23B175L designed to be installed in?

As a unit mount, feed-thru circuit breaker, the QJ23B175L is designed for individual mounting, meter centers, and standalone enclosures rather than bolt-on panelboard applications.

What is the modern replacement for the legacy QJ23B175L circuit breaker?

Siemens has transitioned from the legacy QJ frame to the newer QR frame. The direct replacement for this model is the QR23B175L, which shares the same form and fit.

What wire sizes are compatible with the lugs on the QJ23B175L?

The included line and load lugs accept 6 AWG to 300 kcmil copper wire, or 4 AWG to 300 kcmil aluminum wire.

How does the trip unit function on the QJ23B175L?

This breaker utilizes a fixed thermal magnetic trip unit. It provides long time protection for sustained overloads and an instantaneous trip function for short circuits.

Is the Siemens QJ23B175L suitable for reverse feeding?

Yes, this breaker is HACR rated and supports reverse feeding for applications that require back feeding.
