Siemens Q22020 - 20A, 2-Pole, Circuit Breaker

Meet the Siemens Q22020 20A, 2-Pole Circuit Breaker—the reliable guardian for your electrical distribution. Built to deliver consistent overcurrent protection in demanding environments, this unit is a practical choice for panelboards, switchboards, and control panels where safety and uptime matter.

Two poles. Same fault current. The 2-Pole configuration ensures both hot legs disconnect together on a fault, providing robust protection for 240V circuits and helping prevent damage to equipment, wiring, and downstream controls. This coordination is especially valuable in motor control centers and complex distribution panels where synchronized disconnection minimizes arc exposure and simplifies maintenance.
