THQC2160WL - 60Amp Circuit Breaker

THQC2160WL - 60 Amp Circuit Breaker

The THQC2160WL is a 60-amp, 2-pole circuit breaker designed for protecting your 120/240VAC electrical systems from overloads and short circuits. As part of the THQC Q-Line family, it features an internal common trip mechanism that disconnects both poles simultaneously when a fault occurs. This helps you protect connected equipment while supporting safe operation of the electrical system.

Built with a cable-in/cable-out (lug-lug) connection design, the THQC2160WL allows for straightforward conductor termination in compatible installations. Its compact molded case construction makes it a practical choice for panelboards and load centers where dependable circuit protection is required without taking up unnecessary space. The breaker is also HACR rated, making it suitable for many heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications.

Whether you're replacing an existing breaker or maintaining an electrical distribution system, the THQC2160WL provides the performance needed for a wide range of residential and commercial applications.
