- 15 A protection for single-phase 120/240 V circuits
- 10 kA interrupting rating handles high fault currents
- Bolt-on mounting fits Siemens P1 panelboards directly
- Two-pole design controls both legs of a 240 V supply
- Accepts 14 AWG copper or 12 AWG aluminum conductors
Product Identity
The SIEMENS B215 is a 15 A two-pole miniature circuit breaker from the BL series rated for 120/240 V AC. It uses a bolt-on mounting style and a toggle actuator for standard branch-circuit protection in compatible load centres.
Compatibility Check
Verify that your panelboard is a Siemens P1 series and that the breaker space accepts a bolt-on frame sized at 125 A. Confirm the circuit requires a 15 A two-pole device with a 10 kA interrupting rating at 120/240 V AC and that conductors will be 12 AWG aluminium or 14 AWG copper minimum.
Ideal Installer
Electricians wiring 120/240 V branch circuits in Siemens P1 load centres will find this breaker a direct fit. Installers needing a different amperage, a single-pole design, a plug-in mounting style or a DC voltage rating should select another model.

Questions about this item
Does the SIEMENS B215 breaker ship with mounting hardware or must lugs be purchased separately?
The breaker uses a bolt-on mounting style with integrated lug terminals for 14 AWG copper or 12 AWG aluminium conductors; no separate lug kit is required.
Should I choose the 15 A 2-pole version or a different amperage for a 120/240 V panel?
Select the 15 A 2-pole model when the circuit is rated for 15 amperes on a single-phase 120/240 V Siemens P1 panelboard; other amperages protect different circuit loads.
What does the 10 kA AIR rating mean once the breaker is installed in a P1 panel?
It indicates the breaker can safely interrupt up to 10 000 amperes of fault current at 120/240 V AC without damage, meeting the panelboard's short-circuit withstand requirement.
