General Electric THQB1130 - 30A, 240VAC, 1-Pole, Circuit Breaker

Meet the GE THQB1130 — a 30A, 240V, 1-pole circuit breaker built to protect your critical electrical infrastructure from overcurrent events. Designed for reliability in busy industrial and commercial environments, it delivers precise protection where it matters most: distribution panels, motor control centers, and control cabinets.

Key specifications at a glance

• Current rating: 30A
• Voltage rating: 240VAC
• Poles: 1-Pole
• Breaker type: Circuit Breaker

Why this matters in real-world installations:

• Single-pole, 240V protection for compact, space-efficient branch circuits commonly used in lighting, power, and motor control lines.
• Durable construction designed for industrial and commercial service, helping reduce nuisance trips and extend panel life by providing dependable fault clearing.
• Versatile for use in panelboards, switchboards, and control panels, enabling straightforward upgrades or replacements in existing GE-based systems.
• OEM-friendly option for equipment manufacturers needing a reliable, readily available protection device within standard GE THQB ecosystems.

Use cases and practical scenarios

In a manufacturing floor, the THQB1130 protects single-phase feeders feeding conveyors, pumps, and lighting circuits from overloads. In a control panel, it serves as the primary protection for a motor starter circuit, quickly interrupting fault currents to prevent damage to wiring and components. For OEM equipment builds, it provides a familiar, standard-size protection device that partners seamlessly with existing GE hardware, reducing sourcing complexity and installation time.

Choosing the right overcurrent protection

When selecting a breaker, matching the current rating and voltage to your circuit is critical. The THQB1130’s 30A at 240VAC rating makes it a natural fit for mid-load single-phase circuits typical in light industrial or commercial environments, while its 1-pole form factor keeps panel space lean and installation straightforward.
