The Siemens QF230 is a plug-in style GFCI breaker from the QF series, designed to fit Siemens/ITE EQ, ES, PL, and PN loadcentres and panelboards that accept plug-in (QP-style) breakers. As a 2-pole unit, it occupies two tandem slots in a compatible Siemens loadcentre. Its 5 mA trip sensitivity meets the Class A GFCI requirement mandated by the Canadian Electrical Code for wet locations such as hot tubs, pools, and bathrooms.
Not all Siemens panels accept QF-series GFCI breakers — send us your panel model number and we'll confirm compatibility before you order.
Yes. The QF230's 5 mA Class A ground fault sensitivity meets the CEC requirement for GFCI protection on hot tub and spa circuits. Its 2-pole 30 A, 240 V rating also matches the dedicated circuit typically required for most residential hot tub loads. Always verify your specific installation requirements with a licensed electrician.
The QP230 is a standard 2-pole plug-in breaker with no ground fault protection, while the QF230 adds integrated 5 mA Class A GFCI functionality. The QF230 includes a neutral pigtail wire that must be connected to the panel's neutral bar, so confirm your panel has an available neutral lug before installing.
