General Electric TED136040 - 40A, 600VAC / 250VDC, 3-Pole, Circuit Breaker

The General Electric TED136040 40A, 600VAC / 250VDC, 3-Pole Circuit Breaker is built to deliver dependable overcurrent protection in demanding industrial environments. With a 40 amp rating and the ability to handle both AC and DC applications, this device is designed to keep distribution panels, motor control centers, and control panels running safely and smoothly.

Engineered for flexible deployment, the 3-pole configuration provides coordinated protection across all three phases, ensuring that a fault in one line doesn’t compromise the entire system. This makes it especially well-suited for three-phase motors, feeders, and power distribution where balanced, reliable trip behavior is essential.

• Versatile voltage support: can protect circuits up to 600VAC and 250VDC, accommodating mixed-control environments commonly found in industrial equipment.
• Precise 40A protection: sized to guard motors, pumps, conveyors, and other 3-phase loads without nuisance trips in normal startup and operation.
• Three-pole architecture: unified trip across all phases for simplified safety, easier panel protection, and streamlined maintenance.
• Application-ready design: ideal for panelboards, switchboards, and control panels in industrial, commercial, and OEM installations.
• Robust for demanding duty cycles: built to endure the real-world stresses of distribution panels and motor control centers where reliability matters most.

Ideal use cases

Use the TED136040 to protect three-phase motors on production lines, safeguard power distribution in manufacturing facilities, or serve as a primary overcurrent device in OEM equipment racks. It’s a practical choice for environments where consistent protection, quick fault isolation, and safe shutdown are critical to minimizing downtime.
