With the exact part number TEC24050, this breaker delivers robust overcurrent protection where it matters most—on high-voltage distribution lines that power motors, compressors, and other critical equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey specifications at a glance:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 A\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 480 V\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand \u0026amp; model:\u003c\/strong\u003e General Electric TEC24050\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePurpose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-pole circuit protection for 480V circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhy this two-pole 480V breaker matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn facilities where 480V systems run multiple hot lines, a two-pole breaker like the TEC24050 ensures simultaneous interruption of both conductors during an overcurrent or fault. That coordinated shutoff minimizes damage to equipment and reduces the risk of arcing, helping protect transformers, motors, drives, and distribution panels. Its 50 A rating is ideal for feeder protection and mid-range motor circuits, providing a precise balance between protection and uninterrupted operation for everyday industrial loads.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eIdeal applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMotor feeders and large equipment connected to 480V distribution networks\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCommercial and light-industrial HVAC and processing systems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePanelboard and distribution center protection in industrial facilities\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eReplacement breaker in GE-compatible panels requiring TEC24050 specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePractical considerations for installation and use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eConfirm compatibility with GE panels and load centers that accept two-pole 480V breakers\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInstall in accordance with electrical codes and system requirements for 480V distribution\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUse for overcurrent protection to prevent damage from short circuits and excessive current draw on high-voltage lines\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePlan for maintenance and periodic testing to ensure reliable trips when faults occur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eChoosing the TEC24050 means selecting a purpose-built solution for reliable, straightforward protection in 480V circuits.
