ABB / General Electric TEL136150WL Miniature Circuit Breaker

This E-frame breaker is designed for use in GE A-Series panelboards, as well as compatible GE switchboards, motor control centers, and standalone enclosures. It utilizes a unit mount, feed-thru connection.

The factory-installed lugs accept wire gauges from 4 AWG up to 300 kcmil. The terminals are rated for both copper (Cu) and aluminum (Al) conductors. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation.

Yes, this breaker is classified as current limiting. It is designed to clear a fault in less than half a cycle, significantly reducing the let-through energy and peak let-through current to protect downstream equipment.

In GE nomenclature, the "WL" suffix indicates that the circuit breaker is supplied from the factory with line and load lugs installed. The TEL136150WL includes lugs rated for 4 AWG to 300 kcmil copper or aluminum wire.

Yes, this thermal magnetic breaker is rated for both AC and DC systems. It provides an interrupting capacity of 10kA at 250VDC and 500VDC, making it suitable for specific direct current applications alongside its standard AC ratings.

No, the TEL136150WL features fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip elements. It provides standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection without the ability to adjust the trip curve in the field.

The LI designation stands for Long-Time and Instantaneous trip functions. The long-time element protects against sustained overloads, while the instantaneous element provides immediate tripping during severe short circuits, ensuring comprehensive thermal magnetic protection.

Yes, the TEL136150WL belongs to the legacy GE E-frame molded case circuit breaker family. It shares the same physical footprint as other TEL breakers, making it a direct replacement for older units with matching specifications.
