Product FAQs
5 answersWhat panels are compatible with the GA015 circuit breaker?
This plug-on breaker is engineered specifically for legacy General Switch load centers. It installs directly into the panel without requiring any special mounting adapters.
What is the recommended substitute for the General Switch GA015?
If original General Switch stock is unavailable, the UBIGA115 is the exact-fit aftermarket substitute designed to replace the GA015.
Is the GA015 rated for switching duty and HVAC applications?
Yes, this 15-amp breaker is both SWD rated for switching fluorescent lighting circuits and HACR rated for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
What wire gauge range is supported by the GA015 terminals?
The feed-thru lugs accommodate wire sizes from 14 AWG up to 4 AWG. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation to maintain a secure connection.
How does the thermal-magnetic trip function operate on the GA015?
The breaker uses a fixed thermal-magnetic mechanism with an LI (Long-Time, Instantaneous) trip profile. The thermal element provides a delayed trip for sustained overloads, while the magnetic element trips instantaneously during short circuits.
