Overview

The Siemens QF250A is a 50-amp, 2-pole GFCI breaker built to protect both legs of a 120/240 V circuit. It offers ground-fault protection at ~5 mA, with a thermal-magnetic trip design to handle both overloads and instantaneous faults. Designed for Siemens Q / QP panels, this breaker is suitable for high-demand wet or spa installations, pool equipment, or other locations where both high amperage and safety are required.

What’s Included

  • Siemens QF250A GFCI breaker unit
  • Installation and safety documentation

Compatibility & Replacements

Compatible with Siemens Q / QP family load centers. Replaces existing Siemens 50 A 2-pole GFCI breakers in the QF series (QPF2). Ensure panel is rated for this size and accepts plug-in GFCI breakers.

Installation & Notes

  • Ensure panel slots accommodate 2-pole, 50A plug-in GFCI breakers of this physical size.
  • Use wiring #8-6 AWG per code and Siemens’ specifications; terminals should be torqued as per manufacturer guidance.
  • Test the ground fault protection at installation and periodically to ensure proper function.
  • Must be installed by a qualified electrician, following NEC or local electrical code requirements for GFCI protection.
