Product FAQs

8 answers
What does the ST1 suffix mean on the THQB32080ST1 part number?

The ST1 designation indicates that this breaker includes a factory-installed 120V AC shunt trip accessory. This allows the breaker to be tripped remotely for emergency shutdowns or automated control systems.

Which electrical panels will accept this breaker?

This bolt-on circuit breaker is explicitly designed for compatibility with GE A-Series Panelboards and GE AQ Lighting Panels.

What are the wire gauge requirements for the terminal lugs?

The integrated box lugs accept copper wire ranging from 6 AWG to 1/0 AWG, or aluminum wire ranging from 4 AWG to 1/0 AWG.

Can the THQB32080ST1 be reverse fed?

Yes, this ABB/GE Q-Line molded case circuit breaker is officially rated as suitable for reverse feed installations.

Is this breaker rated for heating and cooling equipment?

Yes, the THQB32080ST1 carries a standard HACR (Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration) marking, allowing it to serve as overcurrent protection for compatible HVAC motor circuits.

How does a bolt-on connection differ from a plug-on breaker?

Bolt-on breakers like this model physically screw directly into the panelboard bus bar. This creates a highly secure, vibration-resistant connection required in most commercial and industrial applications.

Can I use this 240V rated breaker on a 120/208V system?

Yes, while the maximum voltage limit is 240V AC, it is fully rated to operate safely on 120/208V AC three-phase systems while maintaining its 10kA interrupting capacity.

Does this breaker provide ground fault or arc fault protection?

No. This unit relies on standard thermal-magnetic technology for overload and short-circuit protection. It does not contain GFCI or AFCI safety circuitry.

    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.
