General Electric THQB22100 100A 2-Pole 240 V Circuit Breaker

Meet the General Electric THQB22100 100A 2-Pole 240 V Circuit Breaker—a purpose-built protection device purposefully designed for GE panels that accept THQB-type breakers. With a 100 A rating and a true two-pole configuration at 240 V, this breaker stops fault currents fast to guard wiring, outlets, and connected equipment.

Why this matters in real-world use

• Two-pole 240 V protection: Simultaneously interrupts both hot conductors on a 240 V circuit, reducing the risk of shock and preventing neutral or multi-wire branch circuit issues.
• 100 A protection: Ideal for larger feeders or heavy-load branches within residential or light commercial panels that require solid, reliable overcurrent protection up to 100 A.
• Specific GE compatibility: Part of GE’s THQB family, engineered to fit panels labeled for THQB breakers—providing a secure fit and dependable electrical contact when installed according to the panel’s guidelines.
• Clear, durable form factor: Built to endure routine operation and provide straightforward replacement in maintenance or upgrade projects, with a form factor designed for panels with limited space.

Practical scenarios where this breaker shines

• Upgrading a feeder or subpanel circuit that requires 100 A protection in a GE-compatible panel.
• Replacing a failed 100 A two-pole in a GE load center to restore safe operation for a 240 V circuit serving large appliances or heavy-duty equipment.
• New installations in spaces where a robust 240 V, 100 A solution is needed without swapping to a different breaker family.

What you gain with the THQB22100

• Reliability by design: A trusted GE component crafted to deliver consistent performance over time in 240 V circuits.
• Streamlined maintenance: Replacement part with a straightforward install path in compatible GE panels, helping keep downtime to a minimum.
• Clear part identification: Model THQB22100 (100 A, 2-Pole, 240 V) makes ordering, stocking, and cross-checking with your panel labeling simple and accurate.

Installation notes and best practices

Verify that your panel labeling allows THQB breakers and that the line, load, and grounding connections conform to local electrical codes. Ensure the panel is powered down and all safety protocols are followed during replacement or installation, and store the part in a clean, dry environment prior to use.

For reliable 240 V overcurrent protection in GE panels, the General Electric THQB22100 100A 2-Pole 240 V Circuit Breaker delivers focused performance, clear compatibility, and practical value for professional installers and informed homeowners working within GE-rated electrical systems.
