General Electric | TQB2130 | Circuit Breaker | 30A | 2-Pole | 240V

Meet the General Electric TQB2130 circuit breaker — a purpose-built 30A, 2-pole device designed for 240V circuits. This GE component is ready for maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects where exact specifications matter and panel compatibility is critical.

The TQB2130's two-pole design ensures that both hot legs of a 240V circuit trip together, protecting connected equipment from unbalanced loads or dangerous stray voltages. This coordinated shutoff is essential for safety in kitchens, garages, workshops, and other spaces relying on 240V power.

Key specifications and what they mean for your setup

• Amperage: 30 A — provides precise overload protection for 240V circuits (up to 30 amps continuous load, with trip behavior aligned to standard usage).
• Poles: 2-Pole — disconnects both hot conductors simultaneously, ensuring a safe, complete shutoff on 240V circuits.
• Voltage: 240 V — suitable for typical 240V appliances and subpanels; compatible with many GE panel configurations.
• Part number: TQB2130 — using the part number is the most reliable reference for compatibility checks.

Ideal use cases

• Replacement: Swap out a worn or failing breaker in compatible General Electric panels to restore protection for a dedicated 240V circuit.
• Retrofit: Add 240V circuit protection during system upgrades or when expanding a workshop or garage electrical layout.
• Maintenance: Keep spare breaker's inventory on hand for quick, code-compliant servicing of 240V circuits.

Compatibility and installation tips

• Confirm fit and ratings before ordering. The part number TQB2130 is your best reference for compatibility with GE panels.
• Always verify that your panel accepts 2-pole 30A 240V breakers before purchasing.
• For safe installation, power down the main panel, test that circuits are de-energized, and follow local electrical codes. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.

With the General Electric TQB2130, you get a dependable, purpose-built solution for protecting 240V circuits against overloads while ensuring a safe, coordinated trip across both conductors. Add it to your toolkit for reliable maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects that require exact GE compatibility.
