Information About QE230
The QE230 is part of Siemens’ Type QE Ground Fault Equipment Protection breaker family, developed to safeguard equipment from ground faults without the sensitivity associated with personnel GFCI devices. It provides a 30 mA trip threshold, making it suitable for applications such as heat tracing, industrial process equipment, and specialized branch circuits. The breaker combines thermal-magnetic overcurrent protection with ground fault sensing in a compact plug-in design. Its construction supports reliable operation while minimizing unnecessary interruptions in demanding electrical systems.
Key Features:
- GFEP Protection at 30 mA: Designed to protect equipment from damaging ground faults while reducing nuisance tripping.
- Type QE Compatibility: Intended for use in Siemens load centers and panelboards that accept Type QE breakers.
- 30 Amp Current Rating: Suitable for moderate-load single-phase branch and equipment circuits.
- Two-Pole Configuration: Supports 120/240 V applications requiring simultaneous disconnection.
- Thermal-Magnetic Trip Unit: Provides dependable protection against overloads and short-circuit conditions.
- 10 kA Interrupt Rating: Capable of safely interrupting fault currents at rated voltage levels.
- Plug-In Installation: Allows fast installation and straightforward replacement in compatible Siemens panels.
The QE230 delivers the reliability and precision required for effective ground fault equipment protection in Siemens electrical distribution and control applications.
