General Electric FBV26TE030R2 30A 2-Pole 600 V Circuit Breaker

Meet the General Electric FBV26TE030R2: a dependable 30-amp, 2-pole circuit breaker engineered to protect your electrical system from overloads and faults. With a 600 V rating, this GE device is built to handle the demands of commercial and light industrial distributions while helping keep people and equipment safe.

Key specifications

• Current rating: 30 A
• Poles: 2
• Voltage rating: 600 V
• Part number: FBV26TE030R2

Why this matters

The two-pole design ensures both live conductors trip together, delivering balanced protection for multi-wire circuits and reducing the risk of shock or arc faults. The 600 V rating expands its applicability beyond simple residential panels, making it suitable for a range of commercial and light industrial electrical distributions where consistent protection is essential.

Ideal use cases

• Protection for branch circuits and feeders in commercial electrical panels
• Replacement in GE-based distribution systems that require a 2-pole, 30 A breaker
• Maintenance of electrical safety in environments where reliable, fast fault interruption is critical

What problems it solves

By reliably interrupting current during overloads or faults, the FBV26TE030R2 helps prevent equipment damage, reduces the risk of electrical fires, and enhances overall system safety. Its 2-pole operation ensures coordinated disconnection, which is vital for protecting multi-wire circuits and maintaining code-compliant installations.

Practical guidance

For optimal performance, ensure installation is performed by a qualified electrician and that the device is used within its rated 30 A and 600 V specifications. Keep a maintenance eye on tripping behavior—if the breaker trips without an obvious cause, inspect the connected circuit and load, and replace the device if wear or damage is evident.

With the FBV26TE030R2, you’re choosing a trusted General Electric circuit breaker designed to deliver reliable protection where it matters most. Add it to your next panel service or upgrade to ensure robust, coordinated safety for your electrical system.
