Product FAQs
6 answers
Does the THQL1130GFEP provide personnel protection?
No. This is a Ground Fault Equipment Protection (GFEP) breaker with a 30mA trip threshold. It is designed to protect machinery and equipment from electrical damage, not to provide the 5mA personnel protection required for standard GFCI applications.
What types of circuits require a 30mA GFEP breaker?
GFEP breakers are typically installed for dedicated equipment loads like outdoor snow melting systems, roof de-icing cables, and industrial heat tracing, where normal operational leakage current would cause a standard 5mA GFCI to nuisance trip.
Which load centers are compatible with the THQL1130GFEP?
This 1-inch plug-in breaker is designed to snap securely into GE Q-Line, GE PowerMark Gold, and ABB ReliaHome load centers.
Why is this breaker branded as both ABB and General Electric?
ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. Because of this transition, Q-Line breakers like the THQL1130GFEP may feature either ABB or GE branding, but the physical dimensions, fit, and UL listings remain identical.
How does the THQL1130GFEP connect to the panel neutral?
It utilizes a factory-attached pigtail neutral wire. This coiled wire must be routed and secured to the panel neutral bus bar to power the internal ground fault sensing circuitry.
What does the LIG trip function mean on this breaker?
LIG indicates that the breaker provides three types of protection: Long-Time (thermal protection against overloads), Instantaneous (magnetic protection against short circuits), and Ground Fault (30mA equipment protection).
