Product FAQs
7 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the TXQB2130 breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is designed for use in GE A-Series panelboards and GE AQ lighting panels. It is not compatible with standard residential load centers that require plug-in breakers.
Can I use the TXQB2130 in a residential Powermark Gold load center?
No. The TXQB2130 is a bolt-on breaker intended for commercial A-Series and AQ panels. Residential Powermark Gold load centers require plug-in Q-Line breakers like the THQL series.
What is the difference between GE THQB, THHQB, and TXQB breakers?
These Q-Line bolt-on breakers share the same physical dimensions but have different interrupting ratings. The THQB is rated at 10kAIC, the THHQB at 22kAIC, and the TXQB provides the highest rating at 65kAIC.
What wire sizes and materials are accepted by the TXQB2130 terminals?
The load lugs accept 14 to 8 AWG copper wire or 12 to 8 AWG aluminum wire. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation as outlined on the breaker label.
How much panel space does the TXQB2130 require?
As a 2-pole Q-Line breaker, it requires two 1-inch spaces, taking up a total of 2 inches of width in the panelboard.
What does the 65kAIC rating mean for this breaker?
The 65kAIC rating indicates this breaker can safely interrupt up to 65,000 amps of fault current at 120/240VAC. This high interrupting capacity is typically required in commercial or industrial applications with higher available fault currents compared to standard residential systems.
Does the TXQB2130 provide GFCI or AFCI protection?
No. The TXQB2130 is a standard thermal magnetic breaker providing overload and short circuit protection. It does not include Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) or Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) features.
