Part of the legacy E-Frame series, this 45A molded case circuit breaker provides robust thermal-magnetic protection for commercial environments. It is engineered for installation within individual enclosures, switchboards, and motor control centers. The unit-mount configuration features standard line and load lugs. While a legacy component, it can be replaced by the Tmax XT1 series with mounting modifications. Rated 18kAIC at 480VAC, it includes a fixed trip unit and is reverse feed capable.
Why is this breaker listed as both ABB and General Electric?
ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions. As a result, TED series breakers may arrive with either ABB or GE branding, but they are identical in form, fit, and function.
What does the WL suffix mean in the TED124045WL catalog number?
The WL suffix indicates that the circuit breaker comes factory-equipped with both line and load lugs, making it ready for immediate wiring.
What types of panels or enclosures are compatible with the TED124045WL?
This unit-mount breaker is designed for use in individual enclosures, switchboards, and motor control centers that accept GE E150 Line breakers. It is not a plug-on breaker for standard residential load centers.
What wire sizes do the included lugs on the TED124045WL accept?
The factory-installed lugs accept 14-3 AWG copper (Cu) wire or 12-1 AWG aluminum (Al) wire.
Can the TED124045WL be used in DC applications?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for up to 250VDC with an interrupting capacity of 10kAIC, in addition to its standard AC ratings.
How does the TED124045WL mount into an electrical system?
It is a feed-thru, unit-mount circuit breaker. It bolts directly to the mounting surface or enclosure backpan rather than plugging onto a busbar.
Is the trip unit on the TED124045WL adjustable?
No, it features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit providing long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection. The trip settings cannot be adjusted in the field.
