To provide additional protection Siemens offers circuit breakers to protect against severe electrical shock or electrocution, mitigate the risk of electrical fires and protect against damaging surges and Voltage spikes. Circuit breakers are intended for switching and protection of your home's wiring from high temperatures caused by excess current higher than the rating of the wire. While thermal-magnetic circuit breakers are the key element for overload and short-circuit protection of your electrical system, there are potentially dangerous conditions that do not involve over current. To ensure the warranty on a Siemens panel is not voided, the use of Siemens breakers is required. Siemens strongly recommends against the use of "used" breakers. The installation of used breakers in a Siemens panel will void the warranty on the panel. Siemens does not sell used breakers and has not approved any 3rd party sellers to do so. From the Manufacturer Siemens plug in circuit breakers are intended for use in Siemens EQ, Siemens Ultimate, ITE, and Gould load centers or meter combinations. The double pole Siemens breakers may be used in 1 or 3-phase load centers and are 240V rated. To ensure the warranty on a Siemens panel is not voided, the use of Siemens breakers is required. ## Features - Double pole, 100 Amp, 240V type QP Circuit Breaker - 10,000 AIC interrupting rating - Siemens type QP circuit breakers provide easy plug-in connections in Siemens enclosures and the time saving insta-wire feature - Compatible with Siemens PL and ES series load centers - Use for overload and short-circuit protection of your electrical system ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00002N5HH | | Best Sellers Rank | #752 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #1 in Magnetic Circuit Breakers | | Brand Name | SIEMENS | | Circuit Breaker Type | Standard | | Current Rating | 100 A | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (2,284) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00783643148680 | | Included Components | Unit^Instruction Guide | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 2.5"D x 3.5"W x 5"H | | Item Type Name | Circuit Breaker | | Item Weight | 8 ounces | | Manufacturer | Siemens | | Model | Q2100 | | Mounting Type | Plug-In Mount | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Poles | 2 | | Part Number | Q2100 | | UPC | 783643148680 040892179392 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 120 volts | | Warranty Description | 1 Year | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SIEMENS - **Circuit Breaker Type:** Standard - **Current Rating:** 100 A - **Mounting Type:** Plug-In Mount - **Product Dimensions:** 2.5"D x 3.5"W x 5"H ## Images ![Q2100 100-Amp Double Pole Type QP Circuit Breaker - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51uyRAjB0vL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: will it work with 120 volts?** A: Yes and No. This is a double pole breaker and intended to be for 220/240 volt usage which means it is for something big, like a range, a dryer, or in my case, a tankless water heater. This would instantly kill (blow up) anything 110/120V that you tried to plug into if both poles were hooked up. For 110/120 volts you really want a single pole breaker. You also want to pay attention to the amps. Most items that run off of 110/120 volts wouldn't need more than 10 amps. Microwaves and Power tools would be the common exceptions. Most people will run more than 10 amp breakers so you can run more than one thing at a time. 15 or 20 amps are the most common for homes (20 for Microwaves and outlets used for Power Tools). The only possibility I could imagine why a panel in a house would have a single pole 70 amp breaker in it would be that it was acting as a sort of main breaker for all the smaller breakers (meaning not the double pole breakers). If you ran too many items in your house at once, you could trip the 70 amp breaker while never tripping any of the smaller ones. This would be the nuisance of this arrangement (The advantage would be having a way to turn off everything all at once without having to turn off the big stuff). But for that I'd just stay with the single pole. As for the Yes argument, You could just hook up one side and that would allow you to run 110/120 Volts, but it takes up an extra slot in your panel and for many of us all those slots are precious. You could use the other side for something else (I'm not sure what), but you need to remove the bar connecting the two switches so they can operate independently. At this point you would just have two single pole 70 amp breakers that happen to be attached to each other. Not knowing your application, I would really recommend a single pole for 110/120 Volts. **Q: Can this breaker be used as a main breaker with a hold down kit ?** A: Yes as long as you use the hold down kit **Q: what brand circuit breakers will fit in a murray box?** A: The Siemens QP, QT, QAF, and QPF are the standard "interchangeable" plug-on type breakers used in load centers under several brand names including Siemens, Murray, Gould, and Sylvania to name the most common **Q: will this fit crouse hinds breaker?** A: All I know is that,"...Crouse-Hinds bought Murray, and then Siemens bought Crouse-Hinds." ## Frequently Bought Together - Siemens Q2100 100-Amp Double Pole Type QP Circuit Breaker - Siemens Q120_6PK Circuit Breaker (Pack of 6) - Q2125 125-Amp Double Pole Type QP Circuit Breaker --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/3691186-q2100-100-amp-double-pole-type-qp-circuit-breaker](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/3691186-q2100-100-amp-double-pole-type-qp-circuit-breaker) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-08-18*
