EQ8682 - 125Amp Circuit Breaker

EQ8682 - 125Amp Circuit Breaker

The Siemens EQ8682 is a 125 Amp, 2-pole main circuit breaker built for use in compatible Siemens residential load centers. It serves as the main disconnect while providing overcurrent protection against both overloads and short circuits through its thermal-magnetic trip mechanism. Designed with a plug-in connection, the EQ8682 installs into your equipment designed for the Siemens EQ breaker family, making it a practical replacement when the original breaker needs to be replaced with the same type and rating.

Where It Works Best

The Siemens EQ8682 is intended for compatible Siemens load centers and panelboards that require a 125 Amp, 2-pole EQ series main breaker. It is commonly used when replacing an existing breaker with the same catalog number and electrical specifications, helping maintain the original configuration of the electrical system. Confirm compatibility with the load center before installation, including the required amperage, pole configuration, and breaker type.
