General Electric THHQB22100 100A 2-Pole 240 V Circuit Breaker

Protect your 240V circuits with confidence using the General Electric THHQB22100 100A 2-Pole 240 V Circuit Breaker. This genuine GE component, identified by Part Number THHQB22100, is engineered to interrupt fault currents on a two-pole 240V circuit, helping safeguard wiring, devices, and occupants from overloads and short circuits.

Key specifications

• Current rating: 100 A
• Poles: 2
• Voltage rating: 240 V
• Part number: THHQB22100

Why this matters

Two-pole protection ensures both live conductors are disconnected together, preventing dangerous ungrounded or unbalanced conditions on 240V loads. This coordinated shutoff minimizes electrical shock risk and shields connected equipment from damaging fault currents.

Ideal use cases

• Feeding large 240V circuits in residential or light commercial settings (such as high-draw appliances or 240V equipment) that require robust, reliable overcurrent protection.
• Replacement for worn or failed GE breakers in panels that accept THHQB-series devices, helping maintain panel integrity and code-compliant protection.
• Primary protection for feeders from GE panels, ensuring rapid disconnection when faults occur.

Installation and safety tips

• Use only in GE panels that are specified to accept THHQB-series breakers.
• Before installation, shut off power and verify there is no voltage present; this is a 100A device capable of delivering substantial current.
• Torque terminals according to equipment guidelines to ensure a secure connection and proper trip performance. When in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.

For dependable, brand-specific protection of 240V circuits, the General Electric THHQB22100 100A 2-Pole 240 V Circuit Breaker stands out as the precise choice. Part number THHQB22100 is your clear fit for compatible GE panels needing two-pole, 240V overcurrent protection.
