Product FAQs

6 answers
How many panel spaces does the THQDL21175 require?

Due to its high-amperage frame design, this 2-pole breaker requires four standard 1-inch spaces in a compatible GE load center.

Which load centers are compatible with the THQDL21175?

This breaker is designed specifically for use in GE PowerMark Gold and GE PowerMark Plus load centers that are configured to accept high-amperage Q-Line breakers.

What is the difference between GE THQL and THQDL breakers?

THQL breakers are standard 1-inch per pole breakers typically used for branch circuits up to 125A. The THQDL series features a larger frame for higher amperage applications, ranging from 125A to 225A, and requires four 1-inch spaces to install a 2-pole unit.

Can the THQDL21175 be used as a main breaker?

Yes, depending on the panel configuration, the THQDL21175 is frequently utilized as a main breaker or a heavy-duty sub-feed breaker in residential and commercial power distribution systems.

What is the modern replacement series for the THQDL21175?

The THQDL series is the predecessor to the newer GE THQD series of molded case circuit breakers. However, the THQDL21175 remains a direct, exact-fit replacement for existing PowerMark Gold and Plus panels.

What type of protection does the LI trip function provide on this breaker?

The LI designation indicates fixed thermal (Long-Time) and fixed magnetic (Instantaneous) trip elements. The thermal element protects against sustained overloads, while the magnetic element trips immediately during high-fault short circuits.
