Which panelboards and enclosures are compatible with the TJK636450?

This unit mount breaker is designed for installation in GE J600 series panelboards, switchboards, motor control centers, and standalone J-Frame enclosures.

What wire sizes do the standard lugs on this breaker accept?

The factory lugs accommodate dual wires per phase. They accept two 4/0 AWG to 350 kcmil copper conductors, or two 300 to 500 kcmil aluminum conductors.

Can the TJK636450 be used in DC circuits?

Yes, this thermal magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications. It provides a 20kA interrupting capacity at both 250VDC and 500VDC.

How do I adjust the trip settings on this breaker?

The TJK636450 features a fixed thermal element for long time overload protection and an adjustable magnetic element for instantaneous short circuit protection. The magnetic trip threshold can be adjusted using the dial located on the front face of the breaker.

Why is this breaker listed under both ABB and General Electric?

ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. Legacy GE molded case circuit breakers, including the J600 frame TJK series, are now manufactured and supported under the combined ABB and GE brand.
