Product FAQs

8 answers
What panelboards are compatible with the TEY270 circuit breaker?

The TEY270 is designed exclusively for bolt-on installation in GE and ABB A-Series lighting panelboards. It is not compatible with standard residential load centers that require plug-on THQL breakers.

Is there a difference between the GE TEY270 and the ABB TEY270?

No. ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. The TEY270 is the exact same molded case circuit breaker, manufactured to the same specifications, and may arrive with either GE or ABB branding.

Can the TEY270 be used in direct current (DC) applications?

Yes, this thermal magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications up to 250VDC, where it provides a 10kAIC interrupting rating.

What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the TEY270?

The factory-installed lugs accept copper or aluminum wire ranging from 4 AWG up to 1/0 AWG. Ensure you apply the correct torque as specified on the breaker label during installation.

How does the TEY270 differ from standard GE Q-Line THQB breakers?

The TEY270 is rated for higher voltage systems up to 277/480VAC and features a specific bolt-on mounting base for A-Series panelboards. Standard THQB breakers are limited to a maximum of 240VAC.

Does the TEY270 mount on a standard DIN rail?

No, the TEY270 features a proprietary bolt-on connection designed specifically for the busbars in GE and ABB A-Series panelboards. It cannot be mounted on a standard DIN rail.

What does the LI trip function code mean on the TEY270?

The LI designation indicates that the thermal magnetic trip unit provides both Long-Time overload protection and Instantaneous short-circuit protection. Both the thermal and magnetic trip points are fixed on this frame.

What is the interrupting rating (AIC) for the TEY270 on a 480V system?

On a 277/480VAC system, the TEY270 provides a 14kAIC interrupting rating. When used on 120/240VAC systems, the rating increases to 65kAIC.
