General Electric TQL32030 Circuit Breaker 30A 3Pole 240V

The General Electric (GE) TQL32030 is a specific model of circuit breaker within the TQL series. Here's a detailed overview of the TQL32030 circuit breaker:

GE TQL32030 Circuit Breaker Overview

• Model: TQL32030
• Type: Molded Case Circuit Breaker
• Frame Size: TQL
• Number of Poles: 3
• Amperage Rating: 30 Amperes
• Voltage Rating: Typically designed for 240V systems (check the specific datasheet for exact voltage ratings)
• Interrupting Capacity: Often around 22kA, but confirm the exact rating from the datasheet or manufacturer’s documentation.
• Trip Mechanism: Thermal-magnetic trip unit, which combines overload protection with short-circuit protection.
• Mounting: Compatible with GE TQL load centers or panelboards.

Key Features

1. Thermal-Magnetic Protection: Provides reliable protection against overloads and short circuits. The thermal element responds to prolonged overload conditions, while the magnetic element reacts to instantaneous short-circuits.

2. Adjustable Settings: Some models in the TQL series offer adjustable settings to customize protection based on specific application needs.

3. Compact Design: Designed to fit into standard GE panelboards, allowing for efficient use of panel space.

4. Compatibility: Ensure the breaker is compatible with the GE panel or load center where it will be installed. It’s typically used in residential and commercial settings where a 30A, 3-pole configuration is needed.

Installation and Use

• Installation:

  • Safety: Always ensure the power is turned off before installing or replacing a circuit breaker.
  • Mounting: Insert the TQL32030 into the appropriate slot in the panelboard and secure it according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Connections: Connect the load wires to the breaker terminals and ensure they are tightly secured.

• Maintenance:

  • Inspection: Regularly inspect the breaker for signs of wear, overheating, or damage.
  • Testing: Test the breaker periodically to ensure it trips correctly under fault conditions.

Application

• Residential: Protects circuits in residential electrical panels, typically for appliances or branch circuits.
• Commercial: Used in commercial panels to provide reliable protection for circuits with moderate loads.
