What does the R2 suffix in the FBV26TE090R2 catalog number mean?
In the GE Record Plus FB 100 series, the R2 suffix indicates that the circuit breaker is supplied with load lugs only. Line lugs or panel connections must be sourced separately if required for your installation.
Can I field-install internal accessories in the FBV26TE090R2?
Yes, this FB 100 frame breaker supports common field-installable internal accessories, including auxiliary switches, shunt trips, undervoltage releases, and bell alarms.
Are the trip settings adjustable on this GE Record Plus breaker?
No, it features a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed long-time and fixed instantaneous trip functions.
Is the FBV26TE090R2 circuit breaker current limiting?
Yes, GE Record Plus breakers utilize a double-break rotary contact structure and advanced ablative materials. This design is highly current limiting, which helps reduce let-through energy and arc flash exposure during a short circuit.
Can I change the trip unit to a different amperage later?
No, the thermal-magnetic trip units in the GE FB 100 frame series are factory-installed and non-interchangeable. You must replace the complete breaker to change the amp rating.
What type of wire can be used with the included lugs?
The factory-installed load lugs are dual-rated for both copper and aluminum conductors, accepting wire gauges from 4 AWG up to 1/0 AWG.
How does this breaker mount into a system?
This is a unit-mount, bolt-on circuit breaker designed for installation in GE switchboards, motor control centers, or standalone enclosures. It does not snap into standard lighting panelboards.
What frame size does the FBV26TE090R2 belong to?
This breaker belongs to the GE Record Plus FB 100 frame size, which covers amperage ratings up to 100 amps and shares common dimensions and accessories across the frame class.
