Product FAQs

8 answers
What panels or enclosures accept the TQD32225WL?

This unit mount breaker is designed for use in GE A-Series panelboards, Spectra Series panels, and dedicated TQD enclosures.

Does the TQD32225WL come with lugs installed?

Yes, the WL suffix indicates that factory-installed TCAL25 line and load lugs are included. These lugs accept 1 AWG to 300 kcmil copper or aluminum wire.

What is the difference between the TQD32225 and the TQD32225WL?

Both are 225A, 3-pole TQD frame breakers. The TQD32225WL includes factory-installed line and load lugs, whereas the standard TQD32225 may require lugs to be purchased separately depending on the mounting application.

How does the trip mechanism on the TQD32225WL operate?

It features a quick-make, quick-break, trip-free mechanism. This ensures the breaker will trip under overload or short circuit conditions even if the operating handle is physically held in the ON position.

How can I verify the trip mechanism is functioning on this breaker?

The TQD frame includes a mechanical twist-to-trip or push-to-trip verifier that simulates an overcurrent event, allowing you to test the linkage without an electrical load.

How do I reset the TQD32225WL after it trips?

When tripped, the handle moves to a middle position between ON and OFF. To reset the breaker, push the handle to the extreme OFF position, then move it back to the ON position.

Are there modern replacements for the TQD32225WL?

Yes, for facility upgrades, this TQD frame is frequently replaced by ABB Formula A2 or Tmax XT3 molded case circuit breakers using a retrofit kit.

Can this breaker be used as a main breaker?

Yes, the TQD32225WL is commonly used as either a branch breaker or a main breaker in compatible GE panelboards and enclosures, provided the 225A and 10kAIC ratings meet the system requirements.
