  • 70 A continuous current protects two-pole circuits

  • Toggle actuator gives clear on/off indication

70 A two-pole protection for 120/240 V panels

The GE THQL2170 is a 70 A moulded-case circuit breaker built for single-phase 120/240 V AC service. It fits plug-in mounting in compatible GE Power Mark Gold and AQ lighting panelboards. The toggle actuator gives clear on/off indication for residential and light-commercial distribution circuits.

70 A continuous with 10 kA interrupting headroom

Rated for 70 A continuous current, the breaker carries typical branch-circuit loads such as large appliances, sub-panel feeders or motor circuits. Its 10 kA AIR rating at 120/240 V AC provides adequate short-circuit interruption for standard service-entrance equipment. The device is not rated for DC applications, so it must remain on AC circuits only.

Plug-in mounting with lug terminals for secure

The plug-in mounting style allows quick installation on the panel bus without bolt-on hardware. Lug terminals accept conductors sized for the 100 A frame, simplifying wire termination. Physical dimensions of 3.3 in length, 2 in width and 2.4 in depth fit standard panel cut-outs. No DC rating means the breaker is unsuitable for battery or solar DC bus work.

Questions about this item

Will the 70 A, 2-pole THQL2170 fit in my existing Power Mark Gold load center alongside older breakers?

Yes, the THQL2170 is designed for Power Mark Gold load centers and AQ lighting panels, using the same plug-in mounting as other THQL series breakers.

How can I confirm the breaker is operating correctly after installation?

Switch the toggle actuator to ON and verify that the connected 120/240 V AC circuit carries load without nuisance tripping; the breaker should remain latched under normal operation up to its 70 A rating.

What comes in the box with the THQL2170 and what must I supply separately?

The breaker itself is supplied; you will need to provide compatible lug wire, mounting hardware for the panel, and any required conduit or wiring accessories.
