General Electric TEY140 Silk Screen Circuit Breaker

The General Electric TEY140 is a 1-pole circuit breaker rated for 40 amps at 120 volts AC, designed to provide overload and short-circuit protection in electrical distribution systems. Featuring silk screen identification marks, this component serves as a direct replacement part that integrates into compatible General Electric load centers to safely interrupt current flow during electrical faults. Electricians and facility managers commonly specify this breaker for application in commercial and industrial settings where accurate amperage limits prevent wiring overheating and reduce fire hazards. This unit maintains critical connections in branch circuits requiring fixed voltage interruption capabilities to ensure downstream equipment remains protected from excessive current draw or persistent overloads.
