{"product_id":"ge-se3c040","title":"ge SE3C040 40A 3-Pole 240 V Circuit Breaker","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eGE SE3C040 40A 3-Pole 240V Circuit Breaker delivers dependable protection for demanding electrical circuits with precision and ease. This exact part (SE3C040) ensures you’re selecting the correct GE replacement for 3-pole, 240-volt applications, providing reliable interruption when faults or overloads occur. - 40 Amp current rating: Protects circuits from overload while allowing normal operation of high-demand equipment.\n- 3-Pole design: Disconnects all three conductors in the event of a fault, enhancing safety on 240V\/3-phase or multi-wire circuits.\n- 240V voltage rating: Suited for motor circuits, compressors, HVAC equipment, and other high-load applications common in commercial or industrial settings.\n- Exact part compatibility: Part Number SE3C040 identifies the precise GE circuit breaker required for installations that call for this specification, reducing guesswork and installation time. Who this is for:\n- Electricians and technicians replacing failed breakers in GE panels that require a 3-pole, 240V unit.\n- Facility managers upgrading or maintaining motor-driven equipment, HVAC systems, or other heavy-load circuits that demand solid overcurrent protection.\n- Contractors selecting a reliable, known-brand breaker to match existing GE infrastructure and ensure consistent performance. Use cases and practical benefits:\n- Motor and compressor circuits: The 3-pole 240V protection keeps motors safe from overloads and short circuits, helping prevent downtime.\n- Multi-wire or three-phase panels: A single 3-pole breaker neatly disjoins all conductors, simplifying diagnostics and ensuring safe maintenance.\n- Replacement scenarios: When a GE panel or subpanel specifies SE-series breakers, SE3C040 provides a precise, drop-in replacement that preserves panel labeling and system integrity. Installation and safety notes (general guidance):\n- Ensure the panel is powered down and verify compatibility with GE SE-type breakers before installation.\n- Use proper tools and torque specifications as per standard electrical practice and local codes.\n- Replace in a like-for-like configuration to maintain system protection and warranty considerations where applicable. Designed for reliability and designed to fit where 40A, 3-pole, 240V protection is required, the GE SE3C040 helps you maintain safe, efficient operation of high-demand electrical systems.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46423687954594,"sku":"SE3C040","price":510.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/8094\/6850\/files\/master_generic_a085eff1-75dd-47ee-b131-4c8df8f0489b.png?v=1765492976","url":"https:\/\/www.ampstate.com\/products\/ge-se3c040","provider":"Ampstate Electric Corporation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
