Product FAQs
5 answersWhich panelboards are compatible with the THED136040 circuit breaker?
The THED136040 is designed for use in GE A-Series and Spectra Series panelboards. Because it uses a bolt-on mounting style, you must verify that your specific panelboard interior is configured to accept E-frame or TED frame breakers before installation.
Why might my THED136040 breaker arrive with ABB branding?
ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions, meaning legacy GE breaker lines are now manufactured by ABB. The THED136040 remains physically and electrically identical in form, fit, and function to the original General Electric units and is a direct drop-in replacement.
What wire sizes are supported by the factory lugs on this breaker?
The standard lugs accept copper (Cu) conductors ranging from 14 to 3 AWG, and aluminum (Al) conductors ranging from 12 to 1 AWG. Always torque the terminals to the exact specifications printed on the breaker label to prevent overheating.
Are the trip limits on the THED136040 adjustable?
No. This breaker utilizes fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip mechanisms for its long-time and instantaneous trip functions. There are no dials or switches for field-adjusting the trip curves or pickup settings.
Can the THED136040 be utilized in direct current (DC) systems?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker carries a DC rating up to 500VDC with a 10kA interrupting capacity. However, multi-pole DC switching requires specific wiring configurations across the poles depending on the system voltage, so refer to manufacturer schematics for proper series connections.
