Siemens QN2200R - 200 A, 240 V, 2-Pole Plug-In Circuit Breaker | AmpState

The Siemens QN2200R is engineered to protect your electrical system with fast, dependable performance when it matters most. This 200 A, 240 V, 2-pole plug-in molded case circuit breaker is purpose-built for quick installation in panelboards and load centers, delivering reliable branch circuit overcurrent and short-circuit protection across residential, commercial, and light industrial environments.

Why the Siemens QN2200R stands out

• Rapid, tool-free plug-in connection—simplifies replacement and upgrades, reducing downtime during electrical service or panel maintenance.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit—provides stable, repeatable protection against both sustained overloads and high-energy short circuits.
• High-current capability—200 A rating handles demanding branch circuits without compromising protection or performance.
• Direct compatibility—designed to integrate seamlessly with matching OEM load centers and panelboards for worry-free retrofits and replacements.
• Versatile for multiple settings—suitable for residential panels, commercial rooms, and light industrial installations where reliable protection is critical.

How it helps your electrical system stay safe and efficient

By combining a robust thermal-magnetic trip mechanism with a plug-in format, the QN2200R delivers fast fault clearance and minimizes nuisance trips in everyday operation. The 2-pole design ensures synchronized protection across both conductors, preserving system balance and preventing hazardous arc conditions in shared circuits. Because it’s built for plug-in installation, technicians can swap or upgrade breakers without rewiring, speeding up maintenance windows and reducing labor costs.

Ideal use cases

• Residential panel upgrades or service upgrades where a reliable 200 A protection device is required
• Commercial electrical rooms with heavy-load branch circuits needing solid overcurrent protection
• Light industrial applications where quick replacement and durable performance are essential
• Panelboard and load center retrofits that require OEM-compatible components for a clean, code-compliant setup

Practical installation tips

• Confirm your panelboard is designed for 2-pole plug-in breakers in the Siemens QN family and that the 240 V, 200 A rating matches your load requirements.
• Power down the main disconnect and verify zero voltage before removing an existing breaker or installing the QN2200R.
• Inspect the bus stabs and mounting rails for clean contact surfaces to ensure a secure plug-in connection.
• When replacing an old device, choose a breaker that matches the OEM panel’s compatibility to maintain warranty coverage and proper function.
• Keep spare breakers on hand for future service—these plug-in units simplify future maintenance and minimize panel downtime.
