• Current Rating: 225 A
• Poles: 3
• Voltage Rating: 415 V

Why this model stands out

In environments where three-phase power drives critical equipment, the GE TQD34225WL provides solid, dependable protection tailored to GE panels and compatible installations. The 3-pole design ensures synchronized protection across all three phases, reducing the risk of imbalanced loads and nuisance trips. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all breaker—it’s a purpose-built component that aligns with GE’s engineering standards for reliability in medium-to-high current distribution.

Ideal applications and use cases

Best suited for:

• 3-phase feeders in commercial buildings and light-industrial facilities
• Main or feeder protection within distribution panels designed for the TQD family
• Upgrading or stocking spare parts for GE-powered electrical systems operating at up to 415 V

Whether you’re organizing a maintenance plan, performing a retrofit, or stocking inventory for panel upgrades, this breaker provides the clear, decisive protection your 3-phase circuits rely on.

Key benefits and practical insights

• Direct compatibility with GE panels and wiring schemes that support the TQD series, simplifying replacement and maintenance
• Specifically rated for 225 A circuits, delivering robust protection for high-current feeders
• Wide 415 V rating makes it suitable for many regional 3-phase electrical systems, helping you standardize parts across facilities
• Designed for quick installation and reliable performance in demanding environments, reducing downtime during maintenance

Installation and compatibility tips

To maximize performance, verify that your panel and bus arrangement are compatible with the TQD series and that the system operates within the 415 V, 3-pole specification. Keep a properly rated spare on hand for rapid replacements in critical distribution paths, and always follow GE installation guidelines and local electrical codes when replacing or upgrading breakers.
