Siemens QA115AFC - 15A, AFCI Arc-Fault Circuit Breaker

Siemens QA115AFC — a 15A AFCI arc-fault circuit breaker engineered for reliability in demanding electrical environments. Designed for panelboards, switchboards, control panels, and OEM equipment, this device delivers proactive arc-fault protection to help prevent electrical fires while maintaining steady power delivery for critical equipment.

Why choose the QA115AFC for your installation?

• AFCI protection: Built-in arc-fault detection trips the circuit when dangerous arcing is detected, reducing fire risk on branch circuits.
• 15-amp current rating: Ideal for common circuits handling lighting, receptacles, and small equipment without overloading the line.
• Industrial-grade reliability: Engineered for commercial, industrial, and OEM applications where dependable overcurrent protection matters in distribution panels and motor control centers.
• Panel and equipment compatibility: Specifically designed to fit and operate within Siemens panelboards, switchboards, control panels, and OEM configurations that support the QA series.
• Safe, streamlined maintenance: Quick replacement in compatible systems minimizes downtime and keeps your electrical skeleton running smoothly.

Practical use cases

• Protect branch circuits feeding lighting, outlets, and small motors in commercial spaces such as offices, retail, or schools.
• Upgrade existing distribution panels to add AFCI protection without overhauling your electrical infrastructure.
• Integrate into motor control centers (MCCs) and control panels for enhanced protection of control circuits and auxiliary equipment.
• OEM equipment installations where compact, reliable arc-fault protection is required.
