General Electric TQP215 15A 2-Pole 240 V Circuit Breaker

Meet the General Electric TQP215 — a reliable 15A, 2-pole, 240 V circuit breaker designed to protect your 240-volt circuits with precision and confidence. Built for GE panels that accept TQP-series breakers, this unit delivers dependable overcurrent protection when it matters most.

• Part Number: TQP215
• Current rating: 15 A
• Poles: 2
• Voltage rating: 240 V

Why this 2-pole design matters: when an overcurrent occurs on a 240 V circuit, both hot legs are interrupted together. This coordinated trip prevents half-bridge faults and protects connected equipment, wiring, and the panel from damage.

Ideal for residential or light commercial applications that run on 240 V, the TQP215 is a straightforward replacement option for GE panels that support the TQP family. It’s a practical choice for upgrading older breakers or refreshing a panel to maintain safe, reliable power distribution.

Key use cases include 240 V branch circuits such as HVAC equipment, water heaters, well pumps, and other dual-hot-leg loads commonly found in homes and small businesses. With a compact, sturdy form factor, it’s easy to handle during installation and fits standard GE panel configurations that specify TQP-series breakers.

Practical considerations and tips:

• Verify that your panel accepts TQP-series breakers before replacing or installing.
• Power should be fully shut off before servicing; have a licensed electrician perform installation or replacement.
• Confirm that the circuit requires 15 A protection to prevent nuisance trips while safeguarding wiring and connected equipment.
• Keep a record of the part number (TQP215) for future maintenance or panel servicing.

Choosing the TQP215 means opting for a GE-engineered solution that emphasizes safety, reliability, and compatibility with GE panel systems. If you’re upgrading or stocking spare breakers for a GE installation, this 15 A, 2-pole, 240 V model offers a precise, purpose-built option that aligns with your electrical protection needs.
