Description
Product Overview
The Siemens Q225 is a 25 amp, 2‑pole plug‑in Type QP circuit breaker for 120/240V residential circuits.
It uses a thermal‑magnetic trip mechanism and has a 10 kA interrupting rating.
Key Features
- 25 amp trip rating, 2‑pole for 120/240V circuits
- Type QP plug‑in form factor
- Thermal‑magnetic trip mechanism
- 10 kA interrupting rating (10,000 A)
What this breaker does
The Q225 provides overcurrent protection for branch circuits requiring a 25 amp capacity on 120/240V split‑phase residential systems. As a 2‑pole device, it is intended to disconnect both hot conductors.
- Protects two hot conductors in a 120/240V circuit
- Uses thermal and magnetic elements to respond to overloads and high‑current faults
