Abb THQC2130 Circuit Breaker 2-pole 30 Amp

Product Description

The ABB THQC2130 is a 2-pole, 30-amp circuit breaker designed for residential and light commercial electrical panelboards. It provides overcurrent and short-circuit protection for 240-volt branch circuits, interrupting fault current automatically to protect downstream wiring and connected loads. The THQC2130 follows the plug-in breaker form factor standard to GE-style loadcenters, making it a common replacement or expansion breaker for electricians working on existing panel installations. Licensed electricians install this breaker during panel upgrades, service changes, and new branch circuit additions.

This breaker is suited for residential single-family homes, multifamily units, and light commercial spaces where a 2-pole, 30-amp branch circuit is required. Typical applications include 240-volt circuits serving electric dryers, water heaters, HVAC disconnect feeds, and similar dual-leg loads. The plug-in design speeds installation in compatible loadcenters without the need for adapter hardware.

Key Features

• 2-pole configuration provides protection for 240-volt branch circuits
• 30-amp continuous current rating suitable for common residential 240-volt loads
• Plug-in design for fast installation in compatible GE-style panelboards
• Thermal-magnetic trip mechanism responds to both overload and short-circuit conditions
• Compact breaker footprint fits standard double-pole slot spacing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or add-on circuit breaker for GE-style plug-in residential and light commercial loadcenters accepting THQC-series breakers.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always shut off the main breaker and verify the bus is de-energized before installing or removing any branch circuit breaker. Confirm the panelboard is rated to accept THQC-series plug-in breakers before installation. Do not exceed the breaker's rated ampacity when sizing the protected circuit conductors.
