General Electric THQL2150 Plug In Circuit Breaker

General Electric THQL2150 Plug-In Circuit Breaker is a 50 A, 240 V, two-pole, single-phase device in GE’s THQL family. It is a plug-in breaker, a form factor designed for insertion into compatible electrical panels and enclosures. The THQL2150 designation specifies a 50-amp, 240-volt, 2-pole, 1-phase configuration within the THQL line. A 50 A rating denotes the maximum continuous current the breaker is designed to carry under normal operation before tripping to protect conductors and connected equipment from overcurrent conditions. The 240 V specification indicates the operating voltage range for the device, aligning with standard single-phase distribution in many residential and commercial applications. Two-pole means two separate current paths are interrupted simultaneously, which is important for breaking both conductors in a 240-volt circuit. Single-phase indicates it is intended for power supplied on a single alternating current wave, typical of many low- to mid-power distribution systems. As part of the THQL family, this breaker shares the series’ characteristic geometry and mounting style, enabling straightforward replacement or upgrade where THQL plug-in breakers are used.
