Product FAQs

6 answers
What equipment is the TFK236175WL breaker compatible with?

This F-Frame breaker is designed for use in GE A-Series panelboards, switchboards, motor control centers, and individual enclosures.

What does the WL suffix in the TFK236175WL catalog number indicate?

The WL suffix indicates that the breaker includes factory-installed copper and aluminum (Cu/Al) line and load lugs for feed-thru wiring.

What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on this breaker?

The included lugs accept wire gauges ranging from 4 AWG to 300 kcmil for both copper and aluminum conductors.

How is the trip unit configured on the TFK236175WL?

It features an interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit with a fixed thermal element for long-time protection and an adjustable magnetic element for instantaneous short-circuit protection.

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

The TFK series is a legacy GE F-Frame molded case circuit breaker. Following ABB's acquisition of GE Industrial Solutions, these breakers may be branded as either ABB or General Electric, but they remain identical in form, fit, and function.

Can the trip unit be replaced on this breaker frame?

Yes, the TFK236175WL utilizes an interchangeable trip unit design. This allows the thermal-magnetic trip mechanism to be swapped or upgraded without replacing the entire breaker frame.
