General Electrics TEYH2050B - 50 A, 2-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker | AmpState

General Electrics TEYH2050B is a 50A, 2-pole bolt-on molded case circuit breaker designed to deliver dependable branch circuit protection in panelboards and load centers. Built for reliability in residential, commercial, and light industrial environments, this breaker combines a secure bolt-on mounting with a precise thermal-magnetic trip system to guard against both overloads and short circuits.

Key Features

• Bolt-on mounting: Secure, vibration-resistant bus connections that stay tight under heavy loads and over time.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: Delivers stable, repeatable protection by handling slow overloads thermally while automatically tripping on high-magnitude short circuits magnetically.
• OEM-ready compatibility: Designed to pair with matching GE OEM load centers and panelboards for straightforward substitutions and maintenance.
• Versatile application: Suitable for a wide range of electrical installations across residential, commercial, and light industrial settings.
