Built to handle substantial electrical loads, this 80A single-pole component delivers dependable thermal-magnetic trip functionality. It integrates seamlessly into GE A-Series, AE, and AS lighting panelboards via a sturdy bolt-on configuration. With a 65kA interrupting rating at 120V and 14kA at 277V, the breaker provides excellent fault clearance capabilities. The assembly accepts larger 4 to 1/0 AWG copper wire, accommodating the increased amperage requirements of modern commercial facilities.
Which panelboards are compatible with the TEY180 circuit breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is designed specifically for GE A-Series, AE, and AS lighting panelboards. It mounts directly to the panelboard bus using a bolt-on connection, ensuring a secure fit for commercial and industrial lighting applications.
What wire sizes are accepted by the TEY180 terminals?
The included lugs accept 4 AWG to 1/0 AWG copper conductors, or 2 AWG to 1/0 AWG aluminum conductors. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation as outlined by the manufacturer.
Is the TEY180 suitable for direct current (DC) systems?
Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this breaker is rated for use in DC applications up to 125VDC, where it provides a 10kAIC interrupting rating.
Will I receive an ABB or General Electric branded TEY180 breaker?
ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions, so the TEY180 may arrive with either ABB or General Electric branding. Both versions are identical in fit, form, and function for Q-Line and A-Series panelboards.
Does the TEY180 offer ground fault or arc fault protection?
No, this is a standard thermal-magnetic breaker equipped with long-time and instantaneous trip functions. It does not provide GFCI or AFCI safety features.
How does the interrupting capacity of the TEY180 change with voltage?
The TEY180 provides a high 65kAIC rating at 120VAC, but this drops to 14kAIC when used in 240VAC or 277VAC systems. Always verify the available fault current at your panel before installation.
