Siemens Q215AFCCSA - 15 A, 240 V, 2-Pole Plug-In Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Engineered for reliable branch circuit protection, the Siemens Q215AFCCSA is a 15A, 240V, 2-pole plug-in molded-case circuit breaker designed to shine in panelboards and load centers. Built to keep circuits safe from overloads and short circuits, it delivers precise, repeatable protection when every second counts.

Why this breaker stands apart

• Fast plug-in connection enables quicker installation and effortless replacement, minimizing panel downtime and simplifying upgrades or service calls.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit provides stable protection against both sustained overloads and sudden short circuits. The thermal element handles gradual heating without nuisance trips, while the magnetic element bites down on high-maultipage fault currents to interrupt power swiftly.
• OEM-compatible design ensures seamless fit with matching Siemens load centers and panelboards, preserving original trip characteristics and mechanical alignment.
• Two-pole, 240-volt operation offers coordinated protection for multi-wire branch circuits, helping prevent ground faults and maintaining electrical integrity in shared neutrals.
• Plug-in molded-case construction combines rugged durability with a compact footprint, ideal for residential panels, commercial enclosures, and light industrial environments.

Ideal use cases

The Q215AFCCSA is a versatile solution for a range of applications, including:

• Residential panelboards and subpanels where space is at a premium and quick replacements save time.
• Commercial installations such as lighting, outlets, small office equipment, and HVAC circuits that demand dependable overcurrent protection.
• Light industrial controls and distribution panels requiring robust performance in a plug-in format.
