Part of the legacy GE E150 line, the TED124050WL is a 2-pole, 50A MCCB for commercial and industrial applications. It delivers reliable protection for switchboards and motor control centers. This unit-mount breaker features a feed-thru design with factory-installed line and load lugs. For modern upgrades, this E-frame breaker is replaced by the ABB Tmax XT1 series (requires mounting modifications).
