Features
Siemens offers a complete line of
lighting and power distribution
panelboards, along with a full range of
fusible and circuit breaker devices. Also,
two and three pole breakers are
physically interchangeable with an
equivalent number of one pole breakers.
Lighting Panels
General – P1/P2: Interiors have the
ability to physically interchange two and
three pole breakers with an equivalent
number of one pole breakers. Panels
come standard with connectors suitable
for connection to copper or aluminum
cable. Panel interiors have adjustment
screws to provide easy alignment for
flush mounted applications. The interior is
provided with wing nuts for securing to
box without tools. Removable end walls
are standard and available blank and with
KO's. Panelboard box has a separate CSA
label and supplies wire bending and gut-
ter requirements to meet CSA standards.
Wiring gutters are completely free of any
part of trim clamp to prevent damaging
wire insulation. Deadfronts are provided
with a flange for easy attachment of trim.
Incoming cable lugs are grouped at one
end to separate them from the load side
cables. Individual circuit number button
with an embossed number next to each
breaker or provision are provided. The
interior shall be provided with wing nuts
for securing to box without tools. The
panel trim may be surface or flush and
is equipped with concealed hinges, flush
lock and a holder for circuit directory
card. Trim shall have two separate
supports designed to engage the box
flange to stabilize and secure the trim
during installation. Trim screws are
located behind the lockable door for
tamper resistance.
Interior – Type P1: Interiors may be
completely factory-assembled. Interiors
permit installation of feed-thru lugs or
a bus fed subfeed circuit breaker, up to
600 amperes, without increasing the
enclosure size. Interiors are
convertible from main lug to main
breaker with the addition of an
appropriate field-installable kit. Interior
are changeable from top to bottom feed
and vice-versa, while maintaining read-
ability of dead-front labeling. Main lugs
up to 350 mcm are lay-in construction to
facilitate connections. Neutral bussing is
located adjacent to the breaker load
terminals for easy wiring and shortest
cable run possible.
Interior – Type P2: Interiors are
completely factory-assembled. Incoming
cable lugs are grouped at one end to
separate them from the load side cables.
For easy wiring and shortest cable run
possible, load side neutral connection
lugs to be split with each side taking
50% of load neutral connections.
Application
Lighting:
Control centers for lighting and power
circuits in commercial and industrial
installations as well as residential where
extensive electrical systems are involved.
Power and Distribution — Control
centers for power and distribution circuits
as well as service equipment in larger
commercial and industrial installations.

A product of outstanding quality, the current family
of panelboard designs represents the high level of
engineering innovation expected from Siemens.
Additional strength has been added to an already
rugged and durable panelboard family. At the same time,
many models have a trimmed exterior size, have added
flexibility and are easier to install. These newer designs
simplify wiring and reduce material requirements, saving
additional installation time.
The lighting panel design still features the Fas-Latch
trim that is so popular with installers, the jacking screw
system that permits adjustments even after wiring has
been installed, and other features such as exclusive split
neutral. Many panelboards have the capability of mixing
and matching breakers of different sizes and ratings, or
changing from main lug to main breaker, or adding sub-
feed breakers without changing box size.
The complete family of panelboards from Siemens
employs numerous features – all industry-leading, many
exclusive. Note the following, all found in the innovative

Panelboard General Specifications
Class CTL Panelboards
Class CTL panelboards incorporate physical features which, in
conjunction with the physical size, configuration, or other means
provided in Class CTL circuit breakers, are designed to prevent the
installation of more overcurrent protective poles than that number
for which the device is designed and rated.

Service Entrance Equipment
When a panelboard is used as service entrance equipment, it must
be supplied with the appropriate CSA certification and labelling.
Please consult CSA, CEC and local inspection authorities for
specification and installation guidelines.
Panelboards must be identified as “Service Entrance” at the time
of order entry.
Also panels must include a connector for bonding and grounding
neutral conductor.

P2 Panelboards
Flexibility is the hallmark of the P2 panel. This panel offers a
wide array of factory-assembled options to meet almost all
lighting panel applications. With this design, the ability to mix
breaker frames in unit space up to 250 amps will also meet
many distribution panel requirements in a much smaller package.
Busing options for the P2 vary from the typical temperature
rated to 750 A/Si aluminum to 1000A/Si copper. Standard
busing in the P2 panel is tin-plated. Silver-plated copper is also
offered as an option. Integrated time clocks, bus mounted
contactors, as mains or sub mains, split bus, and subfeed lugs
(up to 400 amp) are just a few of the options of this unique
panel.
Like a lighting panel, P2 is set up around 18, 30, 42, and 54
circuit configurations. It will also allow the user to configure
the panel to the smallest possible size. The P2 panel starts
with 9” of unit space (18 circuits of 1” pole breakers). Breakers
mounted in unit space can be mixed and matched to meet
customer requirements. All 1” pole breakers (BL, BQD6, ED
frames) are mounted in 3” or 6” pole increments. Breaker
frames, above 125 amps, are mounted in 6” single breaker
mountings. As an example of a minimum panel, (6) 20 amp
1-pole BL breakers (3” of unit space) and a 3-pole 225 amp
QJ breaker (6” of unit space) equaling 9” of unit space can be
configured in a P2 panel without any extra provisions or space
required. FD 250 amp and JD 400 amp breakers are mounted
as subfeed breakers outside of unit space.
Another unique feature of the P2 panel is that blank unit space
can be added to allow for future expansions or modifications.
Any expansions or modifications must be in 3” increments. BL,
BQD, and ED frame breakers have 3” or 6” pole kits, and can be
mixed in unit space by these increments. Breakers of the same
frame can cross from one mounting to another if contiguous.
QJ frame breakers are mounted in 6” increments for two and
three pole, single mounted units. Changes in the unit space
length for BL, BQD, or ED frame breakers require an addition
deadfront, center strip kit. Check with sales or the factory for
additional unit space kits.
Main Lug / Main Breaker
Enclosure – Standard Type 1 enclosure is 20" wide x 5.75"
deep X. Box Height is determined by main device and unit
space. See charts for box height.
Voltage – 600 Vac Max.
250 Vdc Max.
Amperage – 600 amp Max.
Short circuit rating – 200 KAIC Max. symmetrical or equal
to the lowest rated device installed unless a series rating is
indicated. Panels with subfeed or feed-thru lugs without a
main device, circuit breaker or fusible unit, are limited to a
three-cycle rating. The three-cycle rating for the P2 panel
is limited to 22 KAIC. Note that the main device may be
mounted remote from the panel.
Busing – The P2 panel has more options to meet market
requirements. The standard busing is temperature rated
aluminum. The rating is per the requirements of CSA: 22.2
No. 29 – the standard for panelboards. All aluminum busing
is tin-plated. Optional busing for the P2 panel is: 750 A/Si
aluminum, temperature rated copper, and 1000 A/Si copper.
The copper bus option for this panel is tin-plated.
Weight – Approximate
Total panelboard weight when filled with a normal quantity
of breakers and accessories is about 3 lbs. (1 kg) per inch
(54g per mm) of box height.

Step 2
Create a catalogue number by following
the Catalogue Numbering System on
page 7-5
6. Note that the number of circuits num-
ber (4th and 5th position) will be 18 for
those panels with 6-18 circuits, 30 for
those panels with 19-30 circuits, 42 for
those panels 31 to 42 circuits and 54 for
those panels 43 to 54 circuits. The most
cost effective 20 amp 1-pole breaker for
this application would be BL. However,
a myriad of other breakers with options
may be used in the P2 panel. The most
cost effective 225 amp breaker for this
application is the QJ2.
Based on the above

Determine the enclosure size. The matrix
on page 2-3 shows the enclosure sizes
based on the amperage, main device and
unit space required.
