Product FAQs
5 answersWhat is the difference between a GFEP breaker and a standard GFCI breaker?
A Ground Fault Equipment Protection (GFEP) breaker like the THHQL2115GFEP trips at a 30mA ground fault threshold to protect equipment from damage. Standard GFCI breakers trip at a 5mA threshold to protect personnel from electric shock.
Which load centers are compatible with the THHQL2115GFEP?
This breaker installs in GE PowerMark Gold load centers, ABB ReliaHome load centers, and GE A-Series panelboards that accept 1-inch plug-on Q-Line breakers.
How does the THHQL series differ from standard THQL breakers?
The THHQL series features a higher interrupting rating of 22kAIC, whereas standard THQL breakers are rated for 10kAIC. They share the same physical dimensions and plug-on mounting style.
How do I wire the pigtail neutral on this breaker?
The white pigtail wire must be connected directly to the neutral bus bar in the load center to power the internal ground fault circuitry and ensure proper equipment protection.
Can I use this breaker for heat trace cables or snow melting equipment?
Yes, GFEP breakers are commonly required by the National Electrical Code (NEC) for heat trace tape, snow melting equipment, and roof de-icing systems to prevent equipment damage.
