GE THQL 15A 1-Pole HID Breaker
This GE THQL miniature circuit breaker is rated at 15 A for single-phase 120/240 V AC systems. It uses a toggle actuator and plug-in mounting style for quick installation in compatible load centers. The unit carries a 10 kA interrupting rating at the rated voltage. It is designed for high-intensity discharge lighting circuits.
HID Rating for Lighting Loads
The breaker’s defining specification is its High Intensity Discharge classification, which suits it for the inrush currents of HID lamps. Standard thermal-magnetic breakers without this rating may nuisance-trip on lighting panels. This model is built specifically for that duty.
For HID Lighting Panels Using AQ or Power Mark Gold
Electricians wiring HID lighting on AQ Lighting Panels or Power Mark Gold load centres will find this breaker a direct fit. Installers working with DC circuits, multi-pole requirements, or panels outside the listed series should select a different device.

Questions about this item
What does the 15 A rating mean when the breaker is installed in a panel?
It means the breaker will carry up to 15 A continuously and trip if the current exceeds that level, protecting the circuit wiring from overload.
How does the 10 kA AIR rating at 120/240 V AC limit what the breaker can interrupt?
The breaker can safely interrupt fault currents up to 10 kA at 120/240 V AC; circuits with higher available fault current require a breaker with a higher AIR rating.
What panel space and mounting style does the 1-pole plug-in design need?
It occupies one pole space in a compatible AQ or Power Mark Gold load center and plugs directly onto the panel bus without bolt-on hardware.
