General Electric THQP240N Two Pole Circuit Breaker

General Electric THQP240N is a 40A, 240V two-pole circuit breaker. It provides overcurrent protection for 240V circuits by interrupting both conductors when an overload or short occurs, ensuring a simultaneous disconnect of both live legs. The THQP240N designation identifies this specific two-pole device in GE’s THQP lineup, with a 40 A current rating and a 240 V voltage rating. As a GE part, it is used in electrical panels to safeguard 240V branch circuits that require two-pole protection. Key facts to consider are the amperage rating (40A), the voltage rating (240V), and the two-pole configuration (2P), which together define the device’s suitability for circuits operating at 240V and drawing up to 40 amps. This exact product identity helps ensure you’re selecting the correct GE breaker for 240V, two-pole protection needs. It is designed for use in standard electrical distribution setups requiring reliable 240V, two-pole overcurrent protection.
