Product FAQs
7 answersWhich load centers are approved for use with the GE TQ32050?
The TQ32050 is a UL-classified circuit breaker specifically engineered and approved for installation in Square D QO load centers and Square D NQOD panelboards.
What Square D circuit breaker does the GE TQ32050 replace?
This breaker serves as a UL-classified, functional substitute for the Square D QO350 circuit breaker, offering the same 50-amp, three-pole configuration for QO and NQOD panels.
What wire gauge range is supported by the terminals on the TQ32050?
The box lug terminals are designed to accept either copper or aluminum conductors ranging from 8 AWG up to 3 AWG.
How does the trip mechanism operate across the three poles?
The breaker features an internal common trip mechanism. If a thermal overload or instantaneous short circuit is detected on any single pole, all three poles will trip simultaneously to safely disconnect the entire three-phase load.
How is the TQ32050 mounted into the panelboard?
It utilizes a plug-on mounting style that snaps directly into the busbar of compatible Square D QO load centers and NQOD panelboards, requiring three adjacent breaker spaces.
What does the LI trip function code indicate on this breaker?
The LI designation means the thermal-magnetic trip unit provides Long-Time (L) protection against sustained overloads and Instantaneous (I) protection against short circuits. Both the thermal and magnetic settings are fixed.
Is the GE TQ32050 suitable for use with HVAC equipment?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires a 50-amp, three-phase circuit.
