GENERAL ELECTRIC TQD22175WL Circuit Breaker Feed-thru 175 Amp 240vac 2p 10kaic@240v

General Electric TQD22175WL circuit breaker interrupts the current flow in case of overloads or short circuits, preventing damage to equipment and potential fire hazards. This breaker is essential for maintaining the integrity of electrical systems, reducing downtime and minimising the risk of electrical accidents. Its reliability and versatility make them a staple in electrical installations.

• General Electric TQD22175WL circuit breaker safeguards electrical circuits by detecting and responding to overloads or short circuits.
• In normal operation, it allows current to flow smoothly with quick and safe connection and disconnection of electrical contacts.
• However, if there's an excessive current flow due to an overload or short circuit, the breaker's internal mechanism detects it, activating a trip.
• This trip is independent of the manual handle control, ensuring an immediate interruption of the electrical circuit, even if the handle is in the ON position. To reset the breaker after a trip, move the handle to the OFF position and then back to ON.

• General Electric TQD22175WL circuit breaker features moulded case construction for durability and effective electrical insulation.
• It has a quick-make, quick-break mechanism for minimising arcing during operation, preserving the integrity of the contacts and enhancing safety by preventing damage.
• This circuit breaker offers trip indication and is equipped with a trip-free mechanism for tripping under short circuit or overload conditions, even if the operating handle remains in the ON position, enhancing reliability.
• This circuit breaker comes with UL-listed lugs for copper or aluminium cable, ensuring straightforward, straight-in wiring, simplifying installation and maintenance.
• It has arc chutes for extinguishing arcs, enhancing safety during operation.
• This circuit breaker comes with a verifier technology and features silver alloy contacts, optimising electrical conductivity and minimising pitting and burning for extended contact life.
