TED136030 - GE - E150 Bolt-On Molded Case Circuit Breaker - 30 Amp - 3 Pole - 600 Volt
Product images are representative only. Actual product may vary.
The GE TED136030 is a 30A, 3-pole E150-frame molded case circuit breaker with bolt-on mounting, rated 600VAC and built for GE A-Series and Spectra Series panelboards and switchboards.
Thirty amps at 600 volts covers most small three-phase motor feeders, transformer primaries, and equipment disconnect circuits in commercial buildings. The TED136030 delivers fixed thermal-magnetic Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) protection with an 18kA interrupting rating at 480VAC and 14kA at 600VAC. Quick-make/quick-break contacts and a trip-free mechanism ensure the breaker opens on a fault even if the handle is held closed, and common trip links all three poles so a single-phase fault de-energizes the whole circuit. TCAL12 load lugs are included, and the unit is HACR and HID rated for HVAC and discharge lighting duty.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the TED136030 and the TED136030WL?
The WL suffix designates a factory catalog number that ships with wire lugs installed. Electrically and mechanically the breakers are identical; both units listed here include TCAL12 lugs.
What is the interrupting rating of the TED136030?
18kA at 240VAC and 480VAC, 14kA at 600VAC, and 10kA at 250VDC and 500VDC.
How does the TED differ from the THED?
The THED is the high-interrupting version of the same E150 frame, rated 25kA at 480VAC and 65kA at 240VAC versus the TED's 18kA. Choose based on the available fault current at the panel.
What does trip-free mean?
The mechanism will open the contacts on an overcurrent even if the operating handle is held in the ON position, so the breaker cannot be defeated manually.
What panelboards accept the TED136030?
GE A-Series and Spectra Series panelboards and switchboards using bolt-on mounting hardware.
Can the TED136030 be reverse fed?
Yes. Reverse feed is permitted with no line/load marking restriction under UL 489.
Is the 30A trip rating adjustable?
No. The trip unit is fixed and non-interchangeable.
Is the TED136030 UL listed?
Yes. It is UL 489 listed and CSA certified to C22.2 No. 5, and it is HACR rated.
