The Siemens B270H is a bolt-on, 2-pole 70A 240V breaker from the Siemens BL/BA bolt-on (B-frame) series, designed to install in compatible Siemens/ITE bolt-on panelboards and loadcentres — including select EQ, ES, PL, and PN series panels that accept bolt-on breakers. Its 22kA interrupting rating suits both commercial and residential distribution applications where higher fault-current capacity is required.
Bolt-on breakers are not interchangeable with plug-in (QP/QT) loadcentres — always verify your panel accepts the bolt-on style. Send us your panel model number and we'll confirm fitment.
The 'H' suffix denotes a higher interrupting rating. The B270H carries a 22kA short-circuit interrupting capacity, whereas the standard B270 is typically rated at 10kA. If your panel schedule or local code requires 22kA fault protection — common in commercial or higher-fault-current residential services — the B270H is the correct choice.
No. The B270H is a bolt-on breaker and is not compatible with plug-in style Siemens loadcentres that accept QP or QT breakers. It is designed for Siemens/ITE bolt-on panelboards (such as certain EQ, ES, PL, and PN series panels). Check your panel's wiring diagram or nameplate for the accepted breaker type, or contact us with your panel model and we'll confirm.
Siemens B-frame bolt-on breakers can be challenging to source as the line has seen limited distribution in some regions. Northern Breaker Group specialises in hard-to-find and obsolete breakers, and we maintain stock of Siemens bolt-on units across our Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver locations.
