General Electric FCH326TE020R 20A 3-Pole 600 V Circuit Breaker

The General Electric FCH326TE020R is a purpose-built circuit breaker engineered to shield three-phase electrical systems. With a 20-amp rating on each of its three poles and a 600 V maximum rating, this GE breaker is designed to protect commercial and industrial power distribution from overloads and short circuits across all three phases.

Key specifications that matter for your panel

• Part number: FCH326TE020R
• Current rating: 20 A (per pole)
• Poles: 3
• Voltage rating: 600 V

Why this 3-pole GE breaker stands out

• Balanced three-phase protection: The 3-pole design ensures simultaneous interruption across all live lines, reducing the risk of phase loss and protecting connected motors, transformers, and controls.
• High-voltage suitability: Rated up to 600 V, it’s well-suited for commercial and industrial distribution where higher-voltage equipment and circuits are common.
• Precise GE compatibility: Part number FCH326TE020R is built for seamless replacement in GE panels and configurations that accept this series of breakers, simplifying maintenance and stocking.
• Durable, purpose-built construction: Engineered to endure routine cycling and demanding environments typical of service entrances, electrical rooms, and panel boards in commercial settings.

Ideal use cases

• Protect three-phase motors, conveyors, pumps, and HVAC equipment in manufacturing facilities, warehouses, and large commercial spaces.
• Integrate into 3-phase distribution schemes where a reliable 20 A per-phase protection is required at up to 600 V.
• Serve as a dependable replacement part for existing GE installations that rely on the FCH-series breakers.

Practical installation and considerations

Use in panels designed to accept GE FCH-series breakers. Ensure the power is off during replacement and follow local electrical codes and GE installation guidelines. Verify that the overall system voltage and load are within the breaker’s 600 V rating and that the 3-pole configuration matches your three-phase distribution setup.
