Product FAQs

7 answers
Which electrical panels are compatible with the TE122020 circuit breaker?

This Q-Line bolt-on breaker is designed specifically for installation in commercial GE A-Series panelboards. It will not fit standard residential GE PowerMark load centers, which require plug-on breakers.

How does the TE122020 mount into the panel?

It features a bolt-on connection type. The breaker bolts directly to the busbar of compatible GE A-Series panelboards, ensuring a secure connection for commercial and industrial applications.

What wire sizes are accepted by the terminal lugs on the TE122020?

The breaker's lugs are rated to accept 14 AWG to 8 AWG wire. They are compatible with both copper (Cu) and aluminum (Al) conductors.

What type of overcurrent protection does the TE122020 provide?

It utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. This provides standard long-time (thermal) protection against overloads and instantaneous (magnetic) protection against short circuits.

Can the TE122020 be used in DC voltage systems?

Yes, in addition to its 240VAC rating, this breaker is rated for 125/250VDC applications, providing a 5kA interrupting capacity for DC systems.

What is the maximum AC interrupting rating for the TE122020?

The breaker has a maximum interrupting rating of 22kAIC at 240VAC, though it is also rated for 10kAIC at 120/240VAC depending on the specific system voltage and application.

Why is the TE122020 listed under both ABB and General Electric?

ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. As a result, newly manufactured TE frame breakers may carry the ABB brand, while older stock carries the GE logo. Both are identical in fit and function.

    Part of my go to assembly

    I have purchased several of these enclosures as part of a particular assembly I use.

    The prices vary (as everything does) but are still reasonable and I typically am ordering my breaker and accessories needed so the one stop shopping is also convenient
