Product FAQs
7 answersAre ABB and GE THHQL32040 circuit breakers the exact same product?
Yes. Following ABB's acquisition of GE Industrial Solutions, Q-Line breakers are branded as ABB or GE. They are identical in form, fit, and function.
How much panel space does the THHQL32040 require?
This Q-Line breaker is 1 inch wide per pole. As a 3-pole breaker, it requires three standard 1-inch spaces in a compatible 3-phase load center.
Can I use the THHQL32040 in a single-phase panel?
No. The THHQL32040 is a 3-pole breaker designed for 3-phase systems. It must be installed in a 3-phase GE PowerMark Gold load center or A-Series panelboard.
Can the THHQL32040 replace a standard THQL32040?
Yes. The THHQL32040 has a 22kAIC interrupting rating, which exceeds the 10kAIC rating of the standard THQL32040. It shares the same physical dimensions and plug-on mounting, making it a direct upgrade where higher fault current protection is required.
What is the difference between the THHQL32040 and the THHQB32040?
The THHQL32040 is a plug-on circuit breaker designed for load centers. The THHQB32040 is the bolt-on equivalent used in commercial lighting panels. They are not interchangeable.
Is the THHQL32040 suitable for HVAC equipment protection?
Yes. This breaker is UL listed as HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
Does the THHQL32040 feature a common trip mechanism?
Yes. It features an internal common trip, ensuring that an overload or short circuit on any single pole will simultaneously disconnect all three poles to prevent single-phasing.
