Product FAQs
9 answers
What panelboards are compatible with the FBH26TE020RV?
This Record Plus FB frame breaker is designed for use in GE A-Series panelboards (Type AD) and GE Record Plus panelboards.
What wire sizes are accepted by the load side lugs on this breaker?
The factory-installed load lugs accept 14 to 2 AWG copper wire or 12 to 2 AWG aluminum wire. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation.
Is the FBH26TE020RV a unit mount or plug-in breaker?
This is a unit mount, bolt-on circuit breaker. It requires bolted connections to the panelboard bus rather than a plug-in or snap-in installation.
Does this breaker include line side lugs?
No, as a bolt-on breaker designed for panelboard applications, it features load side lugs only. The line side bolts directly to the panelboard bus.
What is the interrupting capacity (AIC) of the FBH26TE020RV at different voltages?
This high-interrupting breaker provides 200kA at 240V AC, 100kA at 480V AC, and 35kA at 600V AC or 347V AC, making it suitable for commercial systems with high available fault currents.
Are the thermal and magnetic trip settings adjustable on this 20A breaker?
No, this specific model features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. It provides standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection without adjustable dials.
Can this breaker be applied on 600V AC systems?
Yes, the FBH26TE020RV is fully rated for up to 600V AC applications, providing a 35kA interrupting rating at that maximum voltage level.
Why is this breaker listed under both ABB and General Electric?
ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. The Record Plus series, including the FB frame, is now manufactured and supported under the ABB brand while retaining the original GE catalog numbers.
How does the trip unit function on the FBH26TE020RV?
It utilizes a thermal-magnetic trip unit to provide long-time (L) protection against sustained overloads and instantaneous (I) protection against short circuits. Both the thermal and magnetic elements are fixed.
