- Two-pole design serves single-phase panelboards
- Lug terminals accept 8 to 3 AWG conductors
- Compact 3.3 × 2 × 2.4 in frame fits GE load centres
GE THQC 50 A Two-Pole Breaker
This GE THQC miniature circuit breaker delivers 50 A of over-current protection for single-phase 120/240 V AC panels. It mounts on surface or DIN rail and uses a toggle actuator for manual reset. The 100 A frame size fits GE panelboards that accept THQC series devices. Lug terminals accept conductors from 8 AWG to 3 AWG.
10 kA Interrupting Limit
The breaker carries a UL-listed AIR rating of 10 kA at 120/240 V AC, meaning it can safely interrupt fault currents up to that level. It has no DC voltage rating, so it must not be used on DC circuits. The standard trip curve protects branch circuits without selective coordination. Installers must verify the available fault current at the panel does not exceed the 10 kA rating.
50 A Continuous Capacity
At 50 A the device handles typical residential and light-commercial branch loads such as ranges, dryers or sub-panel feeds. The two-pole construction provides common-trip protection for both legs of a 240 V circuit. Loads exceeding 50 A or fault currents above 10 kA require a larger frame or higher AIR rating. The 3.3 in length, 2 in width and 2.4 in depth determine the panel space needed.

Questions about this item
Which THQC breaker rating should I choose for a 50 A load?
Select the 50 A, 2-pole THQC model when the circuit is rated for 50 A at 120/240 V AC.
What does the 10 kA interrupting rating mean when the breaker is installed?
It means the breaker can safely interrupt up to 10 kA of fault current at 120/240 V AC in a GE panelboard.
What mounting standard does the THQC series use and what panelboards does it fit?
The breaker mounts on a surface or DIN rail and is listed for use with GE panelboards.
