Product FAQs

7 answers
What panelboards are compatible with the THQL32070 breaker?

This Q-Line breaker is designed for plug-on installation in GE PowerMark Gold Load Centers and GE A-Series Panelboards, specifically Types AL and AQ.

How much panel space does this 3-pole breaker require?

The THQL32070 features standard Q-Line spacing of 1 inch per pole. Because it is a 3-pole device, it will occupy 3 inches, or three standard breaker spaces, on your panel busbar.

Why did my GE THQL32070 arrive in ABB packaging?

ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions, and Q-Line breakers are transitioning to ABB branding. Products labeled as ABB or GE share the exact same design, UL listings, and functionality, making them fully interchangeable for installation.

Is this circuit breaker HACR rated?

Yes, the THQL32070 is HACR rated. It is approved for safely protecting compatible heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment branch circuits.

What wire sizes are accepted by the terminal lugs?

The standard box lugs on this 70A breaker accept copper conductors ranging from 6 AWG to 1/0 AWG, or aluminum conductors ranging from 4 AWG to 1/0 AWG.

Can I use the THQL32070 to replace a THHQL32070?

You can only use a THQL32070 if your system requires a maximum interrupting rating of 10kAIC. While they share the identical physical frame and plug-on footprint, the THHQL series is rated for a higher 22kAIC. Always verify your required short-circuit rating before downgrading AIC.

Does this breaker feature a common trip mechanism?

Yes. The internal mechanism ensures that if an overload or short circuit is detected by the thermal-magnetic trip unit on any single phase, all three poles will trip simultaneously to safely disconnect the load.
