• Current rating: 40 A
• Poles: 1
• Voltage rating: 120 V

Why this matters for your home or workspace:

• It provides reliable overcurrent protection for a single 120V circuit, helping prevent damage from overloads and short circuits.
• The 1-pole configuration is purpose-built for standard 120V circuit protection, making it a straightforward replacement for compatible setups.
• As a GE part, TE11040 is designed to fit where a 1-pole, 120V breaker is specified, offering a direct match to your existing GE electrical system.

Ideal use cases:

• Replacing a blown or tripped 40A breaker on a 120V circuit, such as lighting, outlets, or small-appliance circuits that require moderate current protection.
• Maintaining electrical safety in a residential or light commercial setup by restoring proper circuit protection after a fault or overload.

Practical considerations:

• Installation should proceed with the main power off and the breaker fully seated in its slot once replaced. Check that the circuit being protected is appropriate for a 40A rating.
• Refer to your panel’s documentation for exact compatibility and installation guidelines, and consult a licensed electrician if there is any uncertainty.
