The box lug terminals are sized to accept larger 6-1/0 AWG copper or 4-1/0 AWG aluminum conductors. Operating at 240VAC with a 10kAIC rating, this HACR-rated device provides reliable thermal-magnetic protection and quick-make/quick-break switching.

Product FAQs

7 answers
What does the ST1 suffix mean on the THQL32070ST1 circuit breaker?

The ST1 suffix indicates the inclusion of a factory-installed 120V shunt trip. This mechanism allows the breaker to be tripped remotely by an external signal, which is commonly used for emergency stop buttons or automated shutdown systems.

What panels are compatible with the THQL32070ST1 breaker?

This 3-pole plug-in breaker is designed exclusively for GE PowerMark Gold load centers and GE A-Series panelboards. It requires three full 1-inch spaces on the panel busbar.

Is the THQL32070ST1 rated for 22kAIC applications?

No, this standard THQL frame breaker has a maximum interrupting rating of 10kAIC at 240VAC. For applications requiring a 22kAIC rating, a THHQL series breaker is required.

Why might my THQL32070ST1 arrive with ABB branding instead of GE?

ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. As a result, Q-Line breakers like the THQL32070ST1 may feature either ABB or General Electric branding. The physical dimensions, mounting, and thermal-magnetic trip functions remain completely identical.

What is the difference between THQL and THQB breakers?

The THQL32070ST1 is a plug-in breaker that snaps onto the panel busbar, typical for load centers. THQB breakers are bolt-on versions that fasten to the bus with a screw, which are commonly used in commercial lighting panels. You must verify your panel's mounting style before installing.

What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the THQL32070ST1?

The box lugs on this 70A breaker accept 6 to 1/0 AWG copper conductors or 4 to 1/0 AWG aluminum conductors. Ensure the wire gauge selected meets local electrical codes for a 70-amp circuit.

Does the THQL32070ST1 provide GFCI or AFCI protection?

No, this breaker provides standard thermal-magnetic protection (Long-Time and Instantaneous trip functions) for overloads and short circuits, plus the remote shunt trip capability. It does not offer ground fault or arc fault protection.
