Introduction
General
This generation of panelboards from Siemens offers the
high level of engineering and innovation you’ve come to
expect from the leader in power distribution technology.
The “P Series” line of panelboards, complimented by the S5
power panels and F2 switchboards, offers a stepped approach
to power distribution.
Additional strength has been added to an already rugged and
durable panelboard family. Engineered specifically to provide
maximum flexibility, the new designs simplify wiring and
reduce material requirements making them easier to install
and less costly than competitive products. At the heart of
these product lines is the extensive research and technology
found among Siemens circuit protection devices – both
fusible switches and molded case circuit breakers.
The line is anchored by the innovative P1. Featuring the industry’s
most flexible designs, the P1 virtually eliminates common
errors, such as feed direction, and main lug versus main
breaker. Increasing distribution is simplified by the ability
to add feed-thru lugs. Because of its unique design, the P1
meets the majority of lighting panel needs with only six
standard sizes.
Subsequent steps in the P Series offer increased capacity and
more design options:
b The highly flexible P2 provides options to fit the most
demanding specifications.
b Sized more like a lighting panel, the P3 packs the power of
a distribution panel in a space-saving design.
b The powerful S5 is a distribution panel that allows circuit
breakers as branch and main devices.
b The F2 anchors the high end of the series. With larger
fusible and circuit breaker branch and main devices, the
venerable F2 delivers maximum power and flexibility to
larger distribution systems.
Features Overview
P Series lighting panel features include Fas-Latch trim, which
is popular among installers; the jacking screw system, that
permits adjustments even after wiring has been installed; our
exclusive split neutral, and more. 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 subfeed breakers without changing the box size.

Panelboards
General Specifications
Service Entrance Equipment
When a panelboard is used as service entrance equipment, it
must be located as close as practicable to the point of entrance
of building supply conductors. Panelboards must be identified
as "Service Entrance" at the time of order entry in order to be
supplied with the appropriate CSA certification and labelling.
Panels must include a connector for bonding and grounding
neutral conductor. Please consult CSA, CEC and local
inspection authorities for specification and installation guidelines.
Integrated Equipment Short Circuit Rating
The term “Integrated Equipment Short Circuit Rating” refers
to the application of series connected circuit breakers in a
combination that allows some breakers to have lower individual
interrupting ratings than the available fault current. This is
permitted as long as the series combination has been tested
and certified by CSA. "Series Rated" must be identified at the
time of order entry.
Standards
CSA:
C22.2 No.29. Certified under files # 93833
UL:
67 and 50. Listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories, Inc.,
under “Panelboards” File #E2269, and #E4016.
Lug Data
Feed-Thru Lugs
Fig. G-1
Subfeed Lugs or Double Lug
Fig. G-2
Feed-thru lugs are mounted at the opposite end of the main
bus from the main lugs or main breaker and are used to
connect two or more panelboards to the incoming feeder. The
feeder cables are brought into Panelboard 1 and connected
to the main lugs or main breaker. Cables interconnecting
the two panelboards are connected to the feed-thru lugs in
Panelboard1 and are carried over the main lugs in Panelboard 2.
This arrangement could be reversed with the main lugs located
at the top and the feed-thru lugs at the bottom of the panel.
Subfeed lugs are mounted directly beside the main incoming
lugs and are used to connect two or more panelboards to
the incoming feeder. The feeder cables are brought into
Panelboard 1 and connected to the main lugs. Another set of
cables that are the same size are connected to the subfeed
lugs of Panelboard 1 and are carried over the main lugs of
Panelboard 2.

Wire Connectors
Standard wire connectors in Siemens panels are suitable for
copper or aluminum cables rated 60/75 degree. Copper main
lugs are a price-added option for most panel types and some
Circuit Breakers (check with Siemens sales for availability). It
should be noted that most copper lugs will only accept copper
cables. Some applications, 100% rated devices in particular,
require that the cable and connectors be rated 90 degree but
are sized to the 75 degree tables.
General
Standard ground connectors are also suitable for copper or
aluminum wire. Ground connector assemblies (EGK, IGK) have
(7) 1/0 max. and (15) #6 max. connections. The 1/0 holes are
capable of connecting up (3) #10 max. wires. Copper ground
assemblies (ECGK, ICGK) are rated for copper wire only and
have the same wiring capacity as the Al/Cu connectors.
Standard neutrals, like standard main lugs, are also rated for
copper or aluminum wire. The neutral cross bar material
follows the selection bus. Copper neutral lugs are rated for
copper cable only and available as a price added option.

Features and Benefits
The standard Siemens P1 panelboard has some unique features that make it easier to design for an engineer, easier to
reconfigure in the field for a contractor, and easier to upgrade and maintain for the owner. What makes it different is its split
neutral design and its open ended bus. In the Siemens panel, instead of the common single neutral bus on one end, there is
a neutral bus on both sides that is cross-bussed. This makes branch wiring simpler and cleaner – the lead lengths for line and
neutral can now be made the same, creating more room and a neater installation. It also allows access to both ends of the bus
as a standard feature – this provides the flexibility to make changes in the field, even if it wasn’t part of the original configuration.

Series Connected Short Circuit Ratings
The term “Series Connected Short
Circuit Rating” refers to the application
of series connected circuit breakers in a
combination that allows some breakers
to have lower individual interrupting
ratings than the available fault current.
This is permitted as long as the series
combination has been tested and
certified by CSA. Series ratings must be
specified on order at time of entry.
See Circuit Breaker Section of this book
for combinations available.

Type P2 Panelboards
Features
Flexibility is the hallmark of the P2 panel.
This panel offers a wide array of factoryassembled 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.
Bussing options for the P2 are aluminum
and copper. Standard bussing in the P2
panel is tin-plated. Silver-plated copper is
also offered as an option. Bus mounted
contactors, as mains or sub mains, and
subfeed lugs (up to 400 amp) are just a
few of the options of this unique panel.
P2 is set up around 18, 30, 42, 54, 66,
78, 90, 102.114 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, BQD, ED frames)
are mounted in 3" or 6" pole increments.
Breaker frames, above 125 amps, are
mounted in 6" single breaker mountings.

Listed by Underwriters' Laboratories
Inc., under "Panelboards" File #E2269 for
the interiors and #E4016 for boxes
and fronts.
Bussing – The P2 panel has more
options to meet market requirements.
The standard bussing is tin-plated
aluminum for amperage up to 400A and
is tin-plated copper for 600A. The rating
is per the requirements of CSA 22.2
No.29 – the standard for panelboards.
The copper bus option for this panel is
tin-plated or silver flash.
Enclosure – Standard Type 1 enclosure
is 20" wide x 5.75" deep. Box Height
is determined by main device and unit
space. See charts for box height.
Panelboards Fronts and Doors
Standard panelboards are furnished
with trim featuring concealed fasteners
and hinges with flush door lock. All
are factory assembled for ease of
installation. Trims are fabricated from
code gauge steel and finished ANSI-61
grey paint. See page 6-6 for optional
fronts.

Series Connected Short Circuit Ratings
The term “Series Connected Short
Circuit Rating” refers to the application
of series connected circuit breakers in a
combination that allows some breakers
to have lower individual interrupting
ratings than the available fault current.
This is permitted as long as the series
combination has been tested and
certified by CSA. Series ratings must be
specified on order at time of entry.
See Circuit Breaker Section of this book
for combinations available.

PANELBOARDS
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.
Voltage – 600V AC max.
250V DC max.
6
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.

P2 Box Size Requirements
Base Box Size Requirements for P2 Panels with Standard Line Lugs are for 1" module (BL, BQD, ED, NGB) branch breakers and provisions. Unit Spaces range from 9" to 57" (in 6" increments). Boxes range from 26" to 74" high (in 6" increments).
Inclusion of optional modifications may require size increases that must be added to these base values to calculate the final
box size for the panel (see pages 6-29, 6-30). For service entrance application, breaker is vertically mounted only.

Panelboards
Type P3 Panelboards
Features
Another innovation from Siemens is
the P3 panel. It is a smaller, footprint
distribution panel to fit a number of
applications. This panel offers factoryassembled options, and has the ability
to mix breaker frames in unit space
up to 125 amps. Bussing options for
the P3 are aluminum and copper. All
bussing in the P3 panel is tin-plated as a
standard. Silver-plated copper is offered
as an option.
PANELBOARDS
6
The P3 panel configurations, defined by
the unit space, allow for a given
amperage and box height. The P3 panel
starts with a 56" high box. Breaker unit
space can be mixed and matched to
meet customer requirements. All 1"
pole breakers (BL, BQD, ED frames) are
mounted in 3" or 6" pole increments.
Like other distribution panels, the P3
panel can have blank space added into
the panel 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.

Integrated Equipment Short
Circuit Ratings
The term “Integrated Equipment Short
Circuit Rating” refers to the application
of series connected circuit breakers in a
combination that allows some breakers
to have lower individual interrupting
ratings than the available fault current.
This is permitted as long as the series
combination has been tested and
certified by UL & CSA.
Series ratings must be specified on
order at time of entry.
