General Electrics TJK436175WL - 175 A, 3-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

The General Electrics TJK436175WL is a 175 A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker designed to deliver reliable branch circuit overcurrent and short-circuit protection in panelboards and loadcenters. Built for consistent performance, this unit helps keep electrical systems safe and operational across a range of settings.

Why this breaker stands out

• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: Provides stable, repeatable protection by intelligently responding to both slow overloads and sudden short circuits, maintaining consistent performance across temperature variations.
• Compact molded case design: Maximizes panel space without compromising protection, making installation in crowded or space-constrained panels straightforward.
• 3-pole configuration: Ensures synchronized protection across all three phases, ideal for about balanced 3‑phase loads and motor circuits.
• OEM-compatible: Designed to work with matching General Electric load centers and panelboards for a seamless fit, reliable electrical coordination, and predictable trip characteristics.
• Versatile applications: Suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial environments where dependable 175 A protection is required.
• Clear specification: Part number TJK436175WL clearly identifies a 175 A, 3-pole thermal-magnetic molded case circuit breaker for easy selection and replacement.

Practical applications and use cases

Use the TJK436175WL as main or feeder protection in panelboards and loadcenters, particularly when wiring runs service heavy-duty equipment or three-phase motors. It’s an excellent choice for upgrading older panels that require a robust, space-efficient MCCB solution with precise trip behavior. In harmonized electrical systems, this device supports reliable protection across all three phases, reducing the risk of uneven loading and potential damage.

What you can expect in real-world operation

With its thermal-magnetic trip mechanism, this breaker quickly isolates faults while avoiding nuisance trips during normal startup surges. The compact design helps you maximize usable panel space, while its three-pole construction ensures balanced protection for multi-phase circuits. When paired with compatible OEM panelboards and loadcenters, it delivers coordinated protection that electricians trust for long-term reliability.
