THQL2160 - 60Amp Circuit Breaker

THQL2160 - 60 Amp Circuit Breaker

The THQL2160 is a 60 amp, 2-pole circuit breaker built for protecting 120/240VAC electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits. As part of the THQL Q-Line series, it features a plug-on design that makes installation straightforward in compatible load centers and panelboards. This breaker is commonly used on larger branch circuits serving equipment such as air conditioners, heat pumps, electric water heaters, workshop machinery, and subpanels. Its HACR rating also makes it suitable for many heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications. With a 10kA interrupting rating, the THQL2160 is capable of handling fault conditions while helping you protect connected equipment and wiring. Contractors and maintenance professionals often choose the THQL2160 when they need a straightforward 60 amp breaker that fits compatible Q-Line systems and performs the job without unnecessary complexity. Its compact footprint helps you conserve panel space, while the molded case construction is built for everyday service in residential and commercial environments.
