The Siemens BQ3B0100 is a bolt-on, 3-pole 100A breaker from the Siemens BQ series, designed for use in compatible Siemens/ITE bolt-on panelboards and loadcentres — including certain EQ, ES, PL, and PN series panels that accept BL/BA bolt-on style breakers. As a 3-pole 240V unit, it is suited for commercial and residential sub-panel or branch-circuit applications requiring 100A three-phase or multi-wire protection at a 10kA interrupt rating.
Bolt-on breakers are not interchangeable with plug-in style panels — please send us your panel model number and we'll confirm fitment before you order.

Yes, it matters significantly. Bolt-on breakers like the BQ3B0100 are mechanically fastened to the bus bar with a screw, providing a more secure connection — commonly required in commercial applications or panels with higher vibration exposure. Plug-in breakers simply snap onto the bus. The two types are not interchangeable, so it's important to confirm your panel accepts bolt-on breakers before ordering.
