The key to breaker compatibility is if it fits correctly into the buss bars in the electric panel.
Siemens from Home Depot. Perhaps more.
Siemens bought Gould so a Siemens panel should work.
The Gould Panel GQF40MBB typically accommodates Gould or Siemens type circuit breakers. Common options include the GFCI, AFCI, and standard thermal magnetic breakers, specifically the GQ series. When replacing breakers, ensure they are compatible with the panel's specifications and ratings to maintain safety and functionality. Always consult the panel's documentation or a licensed electrician for precise recommendations.
Some Siemens may work but remember you are responsible for any fire or lives lost that may occur from using the wrong breaker. Get Gould breakers and you will then know they are safe. Can't find Gould breakers then replace the entire service panel. That is what I would do.
Siemens and Eaton are two common brands that make breakers that are compatible with Gould GFCI breakers. Ensure to check the specifications and compatibility to make sure the replacement breaker will work properly in your electrical panel.
Gould electrical panels typically require breakers that are specifically designed to fit them. Look for breakers that are compatible with Gould panels, such as those made by the same manufacturer or ones that are labeled as compatible with Gould panels. It is important to check the panel's specifications and consult an electrician if unsure.

Siemens circuit breakers are compatible with Gould electrical panels. Siemens acquired the Gould brand, so their circuit breakers are designed to fit and work with Gould panels. Be sure to double-check the specifications to ensure compatibility before installation.

They didn't used to be, however, Square D now has a "homeline" line of circuit breakers which interchange with gould. They are available at Lowes, Home Depot and other hardware stores. Make sure you purchase the identical amperage Square D "homeline" breaker.

A suitable replacement for a Gould circuit breaker would be a compatible breaker from a different brand that is designed to fit and function within the existing panel. It is important to match the specifications of the original breaker, such as voltage, current rating, and type, to ensure proper protection and safe operation of the electrical system. Consulting a licensed electrician or the panel's manufacturer for guidance on selecting a compatible replacement is recommended.

As long as the breakers are made to fit the box, there shouldn't be a problem. you can only use breakers listed for the panel, there should be a label on the panel door. It will list all of the breakers approved for use in that panel. If you don't see the breaker by manufacturer name listed, then it should not be used. Lots of brands will interchange, but they have to be listed to be approved.
