Siemens BE130 - 30 A, 120 V, 1-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Siemens BE130 - a reliable, single-pole bolt-on solution designed to protect your branch circuits with precision and ease. At 30 amps and 120 volts, this molded case circuit breaker is built to handle everyday protection needs in panelboards and load centers, delivering consistent performance in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings.

Why the BE130 stands out

• Secure bolt-on mounting provides a rigid, vibration-resistant connection to the bus, reducing looseness and arcing risks in panels that experience movement or vibration.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit combines thermal protection for gradual overloads with magnetic response for rapid short-circuit trips, delivering stable, repeatable protection across temperature variations.
• OEM-compatible design is engineered to fit Siemens and compatible load centers and panelboards, ensuring reliable electrical characteristics and straightforward replacements.
• Versatile 1-pole, 30A, 120V configuration makes it ideal for protecting individual branch circuits feeding lighting, receptacles, and small equipment in a wide range of environments.

Use cases and practical benefits

The Siemens BE130 is purpose-built for real-world panel installations where secure mounting and reliable protection matter most. Use it to:

• Upgrade or replace a failing breaker in residential or commercial panelboards, ensuring consistent trip characteristics and predictable protection.
• Protect dedicated lighting or receptacle circuits in spaces that experience some movement or vibration, where bolt-on mounting minimizes connection drift.
• Maintain panel compatibility in mixed-use environments—homes, offices, retail spaces, or light manufacturing—without sacrificing performance or safety margins.

Choosing the right breaker for your system

When selecting a breaker, the BE130’s 30A, 120V, 1-pole, bolt-on design ensures you’re pairing the correct current rating and voltage with a mounting style that offers a secure, long-lasting connection to the panel bus. Its thermal-magnetic trip behavior provides a balanced protection strategy: it tolerates steady inrush and nuisance trips less than purely magnetic devices, while still delivering swift response to genuine short-circuit events.

Why customers trust Siemens BE130

With a design optimized for compatibility with Siemens OEM panelboards and load centers, the BE130 delivers dependable protection with a clear path for service and maintenance. If you’re upgrading a panel or stocking spare parts for reliable field service, this 1-pole, 30A, 120V bolt-on breaker offers a practical, durable solution built to perform consistently over time.
