Product FAQs

7 answers
Can I install the THQB1150 in a standard GE Powermark Gold load center?

No. The THQB1150 is a bolt-on circuit breaker designed specifically for GE A-Series panelboards and AQ lighting panels. Powermark Gold load centers require plug-on breakers like the THQL series.

What is the difference between the THQB1150 and the THQL1150?

The primary difference is the mounting style. The THQB1150 features a bolt-on connection for commercial panelboards, whereas the THQL1150 is a plug-on breaker designed for residential load centers.

Can the THQB1150 be used to supply a 240V load?

No. Although it carries a 120/240VAC system rating, the THQB1150 is a 1-pole breaker and only supplies 120V. A 2-pole breaker like the THQB2150 is required for dedicated 240V loads.

Is the THQB1150 suitable for heating and cooling equipment?

Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires this specific rating.

What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the THQB1150?

The box lugs on this 50A breaker accommodate 8 AWG to 3 AWG wire. They are rated for both copper and aluminum conductors.

Does the THQB1150 provide ground fault or arc fault protection?

No, this is a standard thermal magnetic breaker. It provides overload and short-circuit protection but does not include GFCI or AFCI capabilities.

Will this breaker arrive with ABB or GE branding?

Because ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions, the THQB1150 may feature either ABB or General Electric branding. The form, fit, and function remain identical regardless of the logo.

Users report the breakers fit properly, install easily, and function correctly in both residential and commercial applications.

    Hard to find older style breakers

    I am pleased to have access to these breakers. We have a number of them at our church. Local suppliers said that they had never seen this kind of breaker. They fit our panel perfectly.
