Product FAQs
7 answersWhat does the WL suffix in the THED136040WL catalog number mean?
The WL suffix indicates that the circuit breaker is supplied with factory-installed lugs on both the line and load sides for wire termination.
What is the difference between GE TED and THED circuit breakers?
Both models belong to the GE E-150 frame family and share the same physical dimensions. However, THED breakers offer a higher interrupting capacity than standard TED breakers.
What type of equipment is the THED136040WL designed to fit?
This unit-mount breaker is designed for installation in GE enclosures, switchboards, and motor control centers that are configured to accept E-frame circuit breakers.
Are the trip settings on the THED136040WL adjustable?
No, this model features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. The long-time and instantaneous trip functions are factory set and cannot be adjusted in the field.
How is this breaker mounted into an electrical system?
The THED136040WL is a unit-mount circuit breaker. It is secured using mounting hardware and wired via lugs, rather than plugging directly onto a panelboard bus like a standard branch breaker.
Is the THED136040WL suitable for direct current systems?
Yes, this breaker is rated for DC applications up to 500VDC. It provides a 10kA interrupting capacity for both 250VDC and 500VDC systems.
Do the factory lugs on this breaker accept aluminum wiring?
Yes, the lugs are rated for both copper and aluminum conductors. They accept 14 to 3 AWG copper wire or 12 to 1 AWG aluminum wire.
