General Electrics TFK236Y225 - 225 A, 3-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Meet the General Electric TFK236Y225 — a 225 A, 3-pole bolt-on molded case circuit breaker engineered for dependable branch circuit protection in panelboards and load centers. Built to endure the demands of busy electrical environments, this unit delivers consistent overcurrent and short-circuit protection with a focus on reliability and long-term performance.

• Bolt-on mounting provides a rigid, vibration-resistant bus connection, helping maintain solid electrical contact even in environments with equipment vibration or movement.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit offers stable, repeatable protection by responding appropriately to both overloads and short-circuit events, reducing nuisance trips while safeguarding circuits.
• 3-pole configuration ensures synchronized protection across all phases, which is essential for balanced protection in 3‑phase systems.
• OEM compatibility designed to work with matching General Electric OEM panelboards and load centers for straightforward replacement and reliable performance.
• Versatile application suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial installations where high-demand branch circuits require robust protection.

Why it matters in real-world setups: a 225 A rating makes the TFK236Y225 ideal for protecting large feeders and critical branch circuits, such as HVAC feeders, main distribution legs, or multi‑circuit panels in busy electrical rooms. The bolt-on design minimizes connection looseness over time, while the thermal-magnetic trip unit quickly clears faults, helping prevent damage to wiring, equipment, and downstream devices.

Ideal use cases

• Upgrading or replacing worn breakers in GE panelboards and load centers to restore reliable protection for high-demand circuits.
• New installations in residential, commercial, or light industrial settings requiring a durable 3‑pole breaker with solid bus connections.
• Protection of large feeders feeding critical equipment like commercial lighting systems, pumps, or HVAC equipment.

What sets this breaker apart

• Rigid, vibration-resistant installation thanks to bolt-on mounting, which helps maintain stable electrical performance in challenging environments.
• Thermal-magnetic protection provides precise coordination with other protective devices, reducing breaker trips caused by minor overloads while delivering fast response to short circuits.
• Explicit compatibility with GE OEM panels ensures a dependable fit and consistent performance across your existing electrical distribution equipment.
