Information About BQ3B020
The BQ3B020 is part of the Siemens Type BQ low-voltage molded case circuit breaker family used in panelboard and distribution applications. It features a compact molded case construction with an integrated handle actuator for manual operation and status indication. The breaker supports multiple termination styles, including bolt-on, lug-in, and lug-out, allowing flexible integration into various panel configurations. It is commonly applied in three-phase systems where standard interrupting capacity and dependable thermal magnetic protection are required.
Key Features
- Three-pole construction: Provides simultaneous protection and disconnection across all phases in three-phase electrical systems.
- 20 amp continuous current rating: Suitable for branch and feeder circuits with moderate load requirements.
- Thermal magnetic trip mechanism: Combines inverse-time overload protection with instantaneous short-circuit response.
- Long-time and instantaneous protection functions: Ensures consistent operation during sustained overcurrent and sudden fault events.
- Standard interrupting capacity: Rated at 10 kA at 240 VAC for typical commercial and industrial fault levels.
- Multiple connection options: Supports bolt-on, lug-in, and lug-out terminations for installation flexibility.
- Panel-mounted design with handle actuator: Allows secure mounting and straightforward manual operation within distribution panels.
The BQ3B020 delivers the reliability and precision required for protecting low-voltage three-phase distribution circuits in commercial and industrial electrical systems.
