Q1B215 - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

Q1B215 - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're replacing a breaker in existing equipment, the details matter. The Q1B215 is a 15-amp, 2-pole Q1B thermal magnetic circuit breaker with a bolt-on connection and a rating of 10 kAIC at 120/240 VAC. It's intended for compatible electrical equipment where this particular breaker style, size, and electrical rating are required. The breaker measures 6.38 inches high, 1.5 inches wide, and 2.31 inches deep, and it requires four spaces. That's worth checking carefully against the existing installation, since a matching amp rating alone doesn't guarantee the right fit. For electricians and maintenance teams working with older electrical systems, the Q1B215 can provide the form, fit, and function needed to keep compatible equipment in service. Its thermal-magnetic design responds to overload and short-circuit conditions, while the bolt-on configuration provides the connection required for equipment designed for this Q1B style. Simply put, if your application calls for a Q1B, 15A, 2-pole bolt-on breaker, this is the set of specifications you'll want to compare with the breaker being replaced. The product is built to last when installed and used in the application for which it was designed.

Key Features and Benefits

Material Compliance and Certifications

• Specific material compliance and certification information is not included in the available Q1B215 specifications. Certifications such as UL, CSA, RoHS, or similar standards should not be assumed without supporting product documentation or markings. Check the applicable documentation and the individual breaker's labeling when certification information is required for a particular installation.

Where It Works Best

• The Q1B215 makes the most sense for existing electrical systems designed to use a Q1B bolt-on circuit breaker with these specific ratings. It can be a practical, form-fitting, and functional replacement for compatible legacy panels and distribution equipment when maintaining the existing configuration is the goal.
• Before replacing a breaker, compare more than the amperage. Check the part number, Q1B type, two-pole configuration, 15A rating, 120/240VAC voltage, 10k AIC rating, bolt-on connection, four-space requirement, and dimensions against the existing equipment. Those details help determine whether the Q1B215 is appropriate for the application.
• Circuit breakers should be selected and installed by qualified personnel in accordance with the equipment requirements and applicable electrical codes.
