Abb THQP240 2 Pole Circuit Breaker 40 Amp

Product Description

The ABB THQP240 is a 2-pole plug-in circuit breaker in the THQP series, designed for branch-circuit overcurrent protection in residential and light commercial electrical panels. This compact breaker provides reliable thermal-magnetic trip protection for 240-volt branch circuits. It is installed by licensed electricians during new construction, panel upgrades, or circuit additions. The THQP series is known for its half-size form factor, allowing more circuits to fit within a standard load center without sacrificing protection performance.

The THQP240 is suited for residential load centers and light commercial distribution panels that accept plug-in style breakers. Its 2-pole configuration makes it appropriate for 240-volt dedicated circuits such as HVAC equipment, water heaters, dryers, and similar double-pole branch-circuit applications. The compact THQP footprint is particularly useful in panels where space is limited.

Key Features

• 2-pole configuration for 240-volt branch circuit protection
• Plug-in mount design for compatible load centers
• Compact half-size THQP form factor saves panel space
• Thermal-magnetic trip mechanism for overcurrent and short-circuit protection

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style plug-in replacement circuit breaker for load centers and panelboards that accept the THQP breaker series.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. Always shut off the main breaker and verify the panel is de-energized before installing or replacing any circuit breaker. Confirm the panel accepts THQP-series plug-in breakers before installation. Do not install a breaker rated beyond the panel or wiring capacity of the circuit being protected.
