Description
GE Q-Line® Ground Fault Circuit Breaker, Type THQL Model 3 Self-Test, 120/240 V AC, 40 A, 10 kA Interrupt, Q-Line Frame, Thermal Magnetic Trip, 5 mA Trip, 2 Pole, 1 ph, 14 to 8 AWG Cu, 12 to 8 AWG Al Wire, Plug-In Mounting, 3-9/32 in H x 2 in W x 2-3/8 in D Dimensions
Features:
- The national electrical code requires GFCI protection of receptacles located outdoors, in bathrooms, garages and spa areas
- This applies not only to new construction, but also to existing homes
- When an electrical outlet is replaced in a location that requires ground fault protection, the new outlet must be GFCI protected, according to the NEC®
- The GFCI circuit interrupter provides protection against overloads, short circuits and ground faults
- It detects very low levels of electrical current leakage (ground faults) and acts quickly to shut off power, preventing serious shock
- Push button test validates the ground fault detection capability of the breaker
- Class A 5 mA ground fault circuit interrupter
- Quick-make, quick-break mechanism
- Suitable for reverse feed
- Standard continuous current rated
- 60 deg C/75 deg F conductor rating
- Box type terminals
- Multi-pole circuit breakers incorporate internal common trip
