General Electrics THKMA836700 - 700 A, 3-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Meet the General Electrics THKMA836700 — a high-current, 3‑pole bolt‑on molded case circuit breaker designed to shield critical electrical systems from overcurrent and short circuits. Rated at 700A, it’s built to stand up to demanding panelboards and load centers across residential, commercial, and light industrial applications.

• 700A, 3-pole bolt-on design — rugged, scalable protection for large branch circuits and three‑phase feeders.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit — combines fast magnetic response with thermal protection for stable, repeatable trip performance across varying current loads.
• Secure bolt-on mounting — ensures a rigid, vibration‑resistant bus connection that reduces the risk of loose contacts in busy electrical environments.
• OEM panel compatibility — engineered to drop into matching GE OEM load centers and panelboards for straightforward replacements and upgrades.
• Versatile application — ideal for residential upgrades, commercial facilities, and light industrial installations requiring robust overcurrent protection.

Why it matters: the THKMA836700 doesn’t just trip when current spikes; it maintains reliable protection under normal operation, minimizing nuisance trips while guarding wiring and equipment from damage. Its molded case construction provides dependable insulation and thermal stability, even in panels with dense wiring and multiple breakers.

Ideal use cases — upgrade service panels in commercial spaces with three‑phase feeders, replace aging breakers in industrial environments, or integrate into new panelboards demanding high‑current protection at 700A per circuit. The 3‑pole design supports three‑phase systems common in business settings.

Installation considerations: ensure mounting aligns with the panel’s bus bars and confirm compatibility with the specific GE OEM load center. Use enclosure guidelines to maintain secure connections and optimal thermal performance.
