Product FAQs
6 answers
What is the recommended load lug torque for the TEYL3070B circuit breaker?
Lug torque values for this breaker depend on the wire gauge installed. For 4 AWG copper or aluminum wire, torque the lugs to 45 in-lbs. For 3 AWG through 1/0 AWG conductors, torque the lugs to 50 in-lbs.
What is the difference between the GE TEYL3070B, TEYD3070B, and TEYH3070B breakers?
These breakers share the exact same physical footprint and panelboard compatibility, but they have different short circuit interrupting ratings at 480/277V AC. The TEYD3070B is rated at 25 kAIC, the TEYH3070B at 35 kAIC, and the TEYL3070B provides the highest rating at 65 kAIC.
What panelboards accept the TEYL3070B circuit breaker?
The TEYL3070B is a bolt-on branch breaker designed exclusively for GE A-Series lighting panelboards, including type AS and Pro-Stock interiors.
Can the TEYL3070B be used as a direct replacement for lower rated TEY breakers?
Yes, the TEYL3070B will physically fit into the same bolt-on slots as the TEYD3070B or TEYH3070B. Because it has a higher interrupting rating, it safely upgrades and replaces those lower rated models in 480/277V applications.
Can I use aluminum wire with the standard lugs on the TEYL3070B?
Yes, the factory installed load lugs on the TEYL3070B are dual rated, meaning they are certified to safely terminate either copper or aluminum conductors ranging from 4 AWG to 1/0 AWG.
Does the TEYL3070B require a separate mounting kit?
For standard installation into a GE A-Series panelboard, no additional mounting kit is required. However, if using the breaker in a standalone or lug-to-lug unit-mount configuration, a separate 3-pole mounting base (catalog number TEY3B) must be used.
