The Q315 – SIEMENS 3P15A 240V PUSH IN 10kA BREAKER is designed for reliable performance in high-demand applications. This three-pole circuit breaker features a 15-amp capacity and operates at 240 volts, ensuring optimal circuit protection with a robust interrupting capacity of 10kA. Ideal for various electrical setups, it guarantees dependable safety and efficiency.
The Q315 is compatible with Siemens/ITE loadcentres and panelboards that accept the QP/Q series plug-in style — such as the EQ, ES, PL, and PN series. It requires three contiguous breaker slots. If you're unsure whether your specific panel model is compatible, send us the label details and we'll verify before you order.
Siemens acquired ITE and Gould, and the Q series maintains backward compatibility with many legacy ITE/Gould plug-in panelboards. However, fitment depends on the exact panel vintage and bus design. We specialize in obsolete and legacy breakers, so contact us with your panel information and we can confirm whether the Q315 is a direct drop-in replacement.
A 3-pole breaker is typically used for three-phase 240 V circuits or, in some cases, for specialized two-hot-plus-neutral applications. Under the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), the breaker must be sized to match the wire gauge and load requirements of the circuit — 15 A is suited for 14 AWG conductors. Always consult a licensed electrician to confirm the correct breaker configuration for your specific application.
