Product FAQs
6 answersWhat is the difference between GE THQLT and THQP tandem breakers?
THQP breakers are 1/2-inch wide and require specific panel slots with mounting wing stabs. The THQLT series are 1-inch wide tandem breakers that fit into standard 1-inch slots, providing two circuits in a single space without requiring wing stabs.
Which load centers are compatible with the THQLT1520 tandem breaker?
This breaker is designed for use in single-phase ABB Reliahome and GE PowerMark load centers. It installs in standard 1-inch breaker spaces.
Can I use the THQLT1520 to replace an older GE TR1520 breaker?
Yes, the THQLT1520 is the direct replacement for older GE TR1520 and TR1520-R tandem circuit breakers.
How many circuits does the THQLT1520 provide?
It provides two independent single-pole circuits, one 15A and one 20A, while only occupying a single 1-inch breaker space in your panel.
