ABB / General Electric THQP215 Miniature Circuit Breaker

THQP breakers are half-inch wide per pole, designed to save space in compatible panels. THQL breakers are standard full-size breakers that are one inch wide per pole. You can only use THQP breakers in GE panels that explicitly allow thin or tandem breakers.

No. THQP breakers require specific busbar designs with perpendicular tabs. Your GE PowerMark Gold or Plus panel label must explicitly state that it accepts THQP or half-size breakers in the desired slot positions.

Because it is a half-inch per pole breaker, this 2-pole breaker requires exactly one standard one-inch panel space.

Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires a 15A, 2-pole breaker.

ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions. As a result, Q-Line breakers like the THQP215 may feature either GE or ABB branding depending on the manufacturing date, but the physical fit and electrical specifications remain identical.

You should only use breakers that are explicitly listed on your panel label. While some UL-Classified breakers are approved for specific GE panels, standard Siemens QP or Eaton BR breakers are not interchangeable and using them can cause safety hazards or code violations.

Yes, this breaker includes an internal common trip mechanism. This ensures that if one pole experiences an overload or short circuit, both poles will disconnect simultaneously for added safety and code compliance.
