Type Thqp Compact Molded Case Circuit Breaker - 120/240 V AC

• Molded case is molded from high mechanical and high dielectric strength engineered plastic
• Trip indication is shown by handle position midway between ON and off to reset the trip mechanism, move the handle to extreme off then to ON position
• Quick-make, quick-break, trip-free mechanism minimizes arcing during breaker operation, contacts cannot be ''teased'' into position
• Trip-free mechanism is independent of manual handle control, the breaker trips under short circuit or overload, even though the operating handle is held in on position
• VERIFIER™ "twist-to-trip" and ''push-to-trip'' mechanically simulates over current tripping through actuation of linkages not operated by the on-off handle
• Common trip bar assures instant disconnect of all conductors when an overload or short circuit occurs on any one conductor in the circuit or an accessory trip device operates
• Silver alloy contacts combine the conductive properties of silver with other elements for clean, positive electrical contacting, pitting and burning are minimized for longer contact life
• Arc chutes of heat absorbing, insulating material and metal grid plates quickly ''extinguish'' arcs
• UL listed lugs for copper or aluminum cable, at full frame rating, easy access and simple, straight in wiring
• 10 kA at 120 VAC, 10 kA at 120/240 VAC interrupt rating
