General Electric | THQMV225 | Circuit Breaker | 225A | 2-Pole | 240V

Meet the General Electric THQMV225 circuit breaker—a high-capacity, two-pole protection device designed for 240-volt systems. With a 225-amp rating, it’s built to safeguard demanding electrical circuits in maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects where exact specifications matter.

• Amperage: 225 A
• Poles: 2-Pole
• Voltage: 240 V
• Part number: THQMV225
• Best use: maintenance, retrofit, and replacement where matching specs are required

The THQMV225’s two-pole design protects both hot legs of a 240-volt circuit, ensuring simultaneous disconnection and enhanced overall system safety. This makes it an ideal fit for service panels and applications where reliable, coordinated tripping is essential for protecting large feeders and equipment.

Why this GE THQMV225 stands out

Compared to smaller or single-pole breakers, the THQMV225 provides robust, synchronous protection for high-load circuits. Its 225-amp rating is suitable for significant loads often found in upgraded residential panels or light commercial setups, helping to prevent overloads without nuisance trips on normal operation.

What to check before ordering

• Confirm fit and ratings before ordering. The part number THQMV225 is the most reliable reference for compatibility with your GE panel or enclosure.

Use cases and practical applications

• Replacing a worn or damaged breaker in a GE panel that requires a THQMV-series part.
• Retrofit projects where existing circuits need a high-capacity, two-pole 240V protection solution.
• Upgrading service panels to support higher-load feeders without compromising safety.
• Feeding large appliances or equipment that operate on 240V within residential or light commercial settings.

Installation and safety should be performed by a qualified electrician. Always power down the system and follow all panel manufacturer guidelines when replacing or installing a circuit breaker. For best results, use the THQMV225 in GE panels designed to accept THQMV family breakers, and rely on the part number as the primary reference for compatibility.
