BQD270 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker Description

BQD270 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

The Siemens BQD270 is a 70-amp, 2-pole circuit breaker used in 480VAC panelboard applications. It provides overcurrent protection for branch circuits, helping protect your conductors and connected equipment from damage caused by overloads and short circuits. The breaker uses a thermal magnetic trip unit, combining overload protection with fast response during fault conditions.

Part of the Siemens BQD series, the BQD270 is designed for your panelboard mounting and features a molded case construction with low-tab connections. Its compact footprint allows it to fit easily into many commercial and industrial electrical systems. With a 14 kAIC interrupting rating, this breaker is commonly installed in lighting panels, distribution equipment, HVAC systems, control panels, and other applications where 70-amp, two-pole protection is required.
