Description
Engineered for commercial applications, the TK236200 provides robust thermal-magnetic protection for heavy-duty systems. This 200A, 3-pole device is a staple in older infrastructure. It mounts into GE A-Series panelboards, motor control centers, and switchboards. As a legacy K-Frame unit, it serves as a replacement for aging equipment, with the THFK236200 available as a modern substitute. Rated 30kAIC at 480VAC, it features an interchangeable trip unit and adjustable magnetic settings.Specifications

Product FAQs
5 answersWhich equipment is the TK236200 designed to fit?
This 3-pole breaker is engineered for bolt-on installation in GE A-Series panelboards, as well as compatible industrial switchboards and motor control centers.
Why might this breaker feature either ABB or General Electric branding?
Following ABB's acquisition of GE Industrial Solutions, legacy GE breaker lines have transitioned to ABB branding. The TK236200 retains the exact same physical footprint, mounting style, and electrical ratings regardless of the logo on the label.
What does the adjustable magnetic trip feature allow on this breaker?
The TK236200 features a fixed thermal element for overload protection and an adjustable magnetic element. This allows panel builders to adjust the instantaneous short-circuit trip threshold for better selective coordination with downstream devices or to accommodate high motor inrush currents.
What wire sizes are supported by the terminal lugs on the TK236200?
The factory lugs accommodate copper or aluminum wire sizes from 4 AWG up to 300 kcmil. Always apply the correct torque as specified on the breaker faceplate to ensure a secure and code-compliant connection.
What are the primary safety considerations when mounting this breaker?
Because the TK236200 uses a bolt-on connection, the panel or switchboard must be completely de-energized before installation. Installers must ensure the bus connections are properly aligned and torqued to prevent arcing or overheating at the terminals.
