Product FAQs

6 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the TEYH1040B?

This bolt-on miniature circuit breaker is designed specifically for use in GE A-Series lighting panelboards. It is not compatible with standard residential load centers or panelboards from other manufacturers.

How does the TEYH series differ from standard TEY breakers?

The TEYH series offers a higher interrupting capacity. While standard TEY breakers are rated for 14kAIC at 277VAC, the TEYH1040B provides a 35kAIC rating at 277VAC, making it suitable for commercial and industrial systems with higher available fault currents.

Is the TEYH1040B rated for direct current (DC) applications?

Yes, this breaker includes a DC rating of 10kAIC at 125VDC. This allows it to be utilized in compatible DC control circuits, battery systems, and other specialized direct current applications.

What type of conductors can be used with the terminals on this breaker?

The factory-installed lugs accept both copper (Cu) and aluminum (Al) wire, providing flexibility for field wiring. The acceptable wire range for the lugs is 10 AWG to 4 AWG.

Can I mount this breaker on a standard DIN rail?

No. The TEYH1040B features a bolt-on mounting style specific to the GE A-Series panelboard chassis and is not compatible with DIN rail mounting systems.

Why is this breaker listed under both ABB and General Electric?

ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. Depending on the manufacturing date, the TEYH1040B may feature either GE or ABB branding, but the physical dimensions, trip characteristics, and panelboard compatibility remain identical.
