Questions & Answers
The most recent revisions to the NEC (National Electrical Code) mandate that bedroom circuits be protected by an arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI). Instead of regular breakers, you should always use AFCI and Ground Fault (GFCI).
Yes, there is a difference between a single and a twin breaker.
This must be able to fit into a Murray breaker panel. The neutral (white) wire is connected to the white wire gang on the right or left. Depending on your box, you can put the ground in the same gang or a separate bare wire ground gang. The black (hot) wire is attached to the breaker by a screw.
Yes. Siemens appears to have purchased Murray and is now replacing all Murray-branded items with Siemens. They're the same person.

My breaker panel was in good shape; all I needed to do was replace one of the older Murray 15amp breakers. I took a picture of the breaker and called the seller to inform him of the situation. He reassured me that the circuit breaker I needed to replace was the one described in the manual. The breaker showed up earlier than expected. I didn't know how to install it at first, but after watching a few YouTube how-to videos, I was confident that I could. It took me less than five minutes to replace it, and it worked perfectly! This seller comes highly recommended from me.
The price was great, but one of the breakers had a screw that I couldn't tighten, so I deducted a star. It never got properly tapped out. I used a 1/4-inch hammer to remove it. I could have used the breaker if I didn't have that exact tap, but I couldn't have used it if I didn't have that exact tap.
Siemens bought Murray, and the MP/MP-type Murray was born. T is the same breaker as the Siemens type Q/QP, which can be found at any Lowe's store. Murray breakers are no longer manufactured, which is why they are now being sold as "Used" breakers. However, you can occasionally find a Siemen's breaker with a Murray side label.
A 15 amp breaker kept tripping in my house. When I replaced the breaker, the problem was solved. I would suggest purchasing several breakers in various amperage levels so that you have backups on hand in the event of a power outage.
This breaker is not compatible with Murray circuit boxes. The correct box is sold by Square D from Schneider Electric, and it is a no-name brand. Even though I was a Prime Member, I had to pay for return postage.
This breaker was the perfect match for a 42-year-old Murray breaker that had failed. It took me longer to figure out where to put the box cover plate screws so they wouldn't get lost than it did to take out the old breaker and replace it with this one.
I'm not sure why the builder went with this brand, but I'm glad they're available on Amazon. It was simple to replace a faulty breaker.
It works perfectly and arrives quickly. Murray Breakers were not available at any of the stores in my neighborhood.
