Product FAQs
7 answersWhat does the WL suffix in the THQC2160WL catalog number signify?
The WL suffix stands for Wire Lugs [1.3.3]. It indicates the breaker is factory-assembled with both line and load side lugs, creating a feed-thru configuration rather than a plug-on connection.
Can I install the THQC2160WL in a standard GE PowerMark Gold load center?
No. The THQC series is a lug-to-lug breaker designed for 35mm DIN rail or base mounting in control panels and automation cabinets. Standard GE residential load centers require plug-on THQL series breakers.
Which terminals are designated for the line side on this THQC breaker?
This feed-thru breaker does not have designated line and load markings. You can terminate your incoming power to either the top or bottom lugs to best accommodate your panel wiring layout.
Is the THQC2160WL approved for reverse feed applications?
Yes. Because there is no internal line or load orientation, this thermal-magnetic breaker is fully rated and suitable for reverse feed installations.
Does this 60A breaker carry an HACR rating?
Yes. The THQC2160WL is HACR certified, meaning it is approved by UL for use as overcurrent protection for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration motor loads.
Why might I receive this THQC breaker in ABB packaging instead of General Electric?
ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions. While the component may ship with ABB branding or packaging, it is the exact same Q-Line breaker manufactured to identical GE specifications and serves as a direct drop-in replacement.
Can I use this THQC breaker as a standalone disconnect?
Yes. When installed in an appropriately sized standalone enclosure or a 35mm DIN rail control cabinet, this lug-in, lug-out breaker can function as a primary main disconnect.

- POPaul O.Verified BuyerReviewingABB / General Electric THQC2150 - 50A 2 Pole Molded Case Circuit BreakerI recommend this productRated 4 out of 5 stars9/3/26Recent Breaker Purchases
These breakers matched perfectly for my main AC supplies for my boat. I had the original 43-year-old Chinese (GenFu) breakers that failed and these GEs were a perfect match. My only reservation for not providing a 5-star review is breakers do not arrive in GE's original packaging which can lead to questions whether they are truly "new" breakers. Otherewise, happy I found some that replaced my originals. Thanks SB!
