Circuit Breakers Arc-Fault and Ground-Fault Breakers
Selection/Wiring Diagrams
Arc-Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCI) AFCI’s detect arcing faults (an unintentional arcing condition in a circuit) that standard circuit breakers are unable to detect. The device is intended to mitigate the effects of arcing faults by functioning to de-energize the circuit when an arc-fault is detected.
Combination Type AFCI Detects all three possible types of arc fault: line-to-ground, line-to-neutral, and series. 10,000 A IR

UL Classified Siemens Type QD circuit breakers are UL Classified for use in specific Square D load centers in place of Square D Type QO® circuit breakers. A Panelboard Compatibility List packaged with each QD breaker shows which type QD circuit breakers are acceptable for use in Square D load centers. The interrupting rating on these circuit breakers is 10,000A IR maximum and they are not series rated with Square D circuit breakers or equipment. This UL Classification allows a Siemens Type QD circuit breaker to be used in place of a Square D Type QO circuit breaker in those load centers that are specifically shown on the Panelboard Compatibility list. For additional information, contact your local Siemens sales engineer.

Surge Protection Circuit Breaker and Surge Protective Device (SPD) Features
Circuit Breaker and Surge Protective Device (SPD)
▪ 2 inch wide plug-on design — Includes (2) 1 Pole circuits breakers — No loss of load center spaces ▪ Easy to install and perfect for retrofit ▪ LEDs provide protection status
Benefits
By installing a Siemens Circuit Breaker and Surge Protective Device (SPD) in the load center of the residence, surge protection is provided for all branch circuits. Two green LED indicator lights are provided to show that surge protection is provided for all circuits connected to the load center. These breakers should be used for circuit protection of frequently used household or facility circuits because the lights and devices connected to these circuits provide an effective indication that surge protection is being provided. The circuit breaker and SPD utilize Siemens-built 150V AC, 40mm, metal oxide varistors (MOVs). The maximum impulse rating for the SPD module is 40kA. The standard interrupting rating for the circuit breakers is 10k AIC. All Type QP circuit breakers and SPD are plug-on style, with load terminals provided. The devices are rated for 120/240V AC and are calibrated for 40 degrees C maximum ambient applications. Breaker Type QP 1- Pole 120/240V AC 10K AIC

Arc-Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCI) AFCI’s detect arcing faults (an unintentional arcing condition in a circuit) that standard circuit breakers are unable to detect. The device is intended to mitigate the effects of arcing faults by functioning to de-energize the circuit when an arc-fault is detected.
Combination Type AFCI Detects all three possible types of arc fault: line-to-ground, line-to-neutral, and series. 10,000 A IR

UL Classified Siemens Type QD circuit breakers are UL Classified for use in specific Square D load centers in place of Square D Type QO® circuit breakers. A Panelboard Compatibility List packaged with each QD breaker shows which type QD circuit breakers are acceptable for use in Square D load centers. The interrupting rating on these circuit breakers is 10,000A IR maximum and they are not series rated with Square D circuit breakers or equipment. This UL Classification allows a Siemens Type QD circuit breaker to be used in place of a Square D Type QO circuit breaker in those load centers that are specifically shown on the Panelboard Compatibility list. For additional information, contact your local Siemens sales engineer.

Surge Protection Circuit Breaker and Surge Protective Device (SPD) Features
Circuit Breaker and Surge Protective Device (SPD)
▪ 2 inch wide plug-on design — Includes (2) 1 Pole circuits breakers — No loss of load center spaces ▪ Easy to install and perfect for retrofit ▪ LEDs provide protection status
Benefits
By installing a Siemens Circuit Breaker and Surge Protective Device (SPD) in the load center of the residence, surge protection is provided for all branch circuits. Two green LED indicator lights are provided to show that surge protection is provided for all circuits connected to the load center. These breakers should be used for circuit protection of frequently used household or facility circuits because the lights and devices connected to these circuits provide an effective indication that surge protection is being provided. The circuit breaker and SPD utilize Siemens-built 150V AC, 40mm, metal oxide varistors (MOVs). The maximum impulse rating for the SPD module is 40kA. The standard interrupting rating for the circuit breakers is 10k AIC. All Type QP circuit breakers and SPD are plug-on style, with load terminals provided. The devices are rated for 120/240V AC and are calibrated for 40 degrees C maximum ambient applications. Breaker Type QP 1- Pole 120/240V AC 10K AIC
