ABB TEB132020WL – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What amperages does the ABB E150 TEB 3-pole breaker come in?
Four ratings are offered on the E150 3-pole thermal magnetic breaker: 15A (TEB132015WL), 20A (TEB132020WL), 50A (TEB132050WL) and 70A (TEB132070WL). All four share the same E150 frame, LI thermal magnetic trip and 10kA interrupt rating, so sizing is purely a matter of matching the breaker to the branch circuit conductor and load.
2) Can I use this ABB breaker to feed a rooftop air conditioning unit or refrigeration equipment?
Yes. The E150 TEB 3-pole breaker is HACR rated, which is what the nameplate on most packaged HVAC and refrigeration equipment calls for on the branch circuit ahead of it. Size it to the maximum overcurrent protective device figure printed on the unit nameplate, not to the running current.
3) Can I substitute this ABB breaker into a Square D I-Line panelboard?
No. The E150 TEB is an ABB molded-case breaker and is not interchangeable with I-Line hardware. Square D I-Line panels take a plug-on I-Line breaker such as the PowerPacT Q. Breaker to panel compatibility is by manufacturer and interior type, so match the panel label.
4) What is the closest thermal magnetic alternative to the ABB TEB 3-pole breaker for a panelboard job?
The Square D PowerPacT B is also a thermal magnetic circuit breaker, which makes it the nearest match in trip technology to the ABB E150 series TEB breaker. Both use a thermal magnetic trip rather than an electronic trip unit. The difference is the frame: the ABB unit is built on the E150 frame with a non-interchangeable trip range and is offered in 15, 20, 50 and 70 ampere 3-pole versions, while the PowerPacT B is a separate Square D frame family. Because breaker frames are mounting-specific, confirm the panelboard interior accepts the frame you order before substituting one for the other.
5) Can I use a DIN rail miniature circuit breaker instead of the ABB TEB 3-pole breaker?
Only if the enclosure is built for DIN rail. The Square D C60 UL489 miniature circuit breaker is a DIN rail mount MCB, so it bolts to a rail inside a control panel or enclosure. The ABB E150 series TEB is a molded-case breaker intended for panelboards and load centers, and it is a 3-pole device. A DIN rail MCB is not a drop-in replacement in a panelboard interior, so pick the C60 when you are building out a DIN rail control panel and the E150 TEB when you are filling a panelboard.
6) What should I use instead of the ABB TEB breaker in an I-Line panelboard?
An I-Line panelboard takes a bus-stab I-Line breaker, and the Square D PowerPacT Q is an I-Line circuit breaker built for that interior. The ABB E150 series TEB is a molded-case thermal magnetic breaker for standard panelboards and load centers, not an I-Line device, so it will not land on I-Line bus. Confirm which interior is in the enclosure before ordering, because the two are not interchangeable in the same panel.
7) Can I change the trip rating on an ABB E150 breaker later if the load grows?
No. The E150 frame is supplied with a non-interchangeable trip, so the amp rating is fixed at the factory. If the load increases you replace the whole breaker with the next rating up, provided the conductors and lugs support it. That fixed trip is also why it cannot be field-tampered.
8) Will a 3-pole 240V breaker work on my 208V three-phase panel?
Yes. The E150 TEB 3-pole breaker is rated to 240VAC, and a 208Y/120V three-phase system falls under that rating. It is a three-pole device intended for three-phase branch circuits; do not apply it above 240VAC.
9) Is the ABB TEB breaker UL listed for an inspection?
It is UL Listed, cited under UL Standard E11592, and HACR rated. Those are the two items an inspector typically looks for on a breaker serving a three-phase branch circuit or HVAC equipment.
10) How is this different from a DIN rail miniature breaker like the Square D C60?
The ABB E150 TEB is a molded-case, bolt-in style panelboard breaker for three-phase branch circuits in commercial load centers. The Square D C60 UL489 miniature circuit breaker is DIN rail mounted, which suits control panels and equipment enclosures rather than a building panelboard. If you are replacing a breaker inside an existing ABB/GE-style panelboard, the molded-case E150 is the right family; if you are building out a control cabinet on DIN rail, the C60 is.
11) I only need to protect a single 120V branch circuit. Is there a simpler option than the ABB TEB 3-pole breaker?
Yes. The Square D Multi9 C60 1-pole C-curve miniature circuit breaker is rated 120V AC and is a single-pole device, which suits one branch circuit rather than a three-phase load. The ABB E150 series TEB is a 3-pole breaker rated 120/240VAC and is intended for three-phase distribution circuits, so it is more breaker than a single 120V lighting or receptacle circuit calls for. Choose the 1-pole C60 for the single circuit and keep the 3-pole E150 for three-phase equipment.
12) For an HVAC or refrigeration equipment circuit, which breaker is specified for that duty?
The ABB E150 series TEB 3-pole breaker is HACR rated for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment circuits and is UL listed, with a 10kA interrupt rating at 120VAC, 120/240VAC and 240VAC. Comparable Square D units such as the PowerPacT B thermal magnetic breaker and the C60 UL489 MCB are described by series and trip type rather than by an HACR designation, so when the equipment nameplate calls for an HACR rated breaker the E150 TEB is the one that carries that marking.
13) Is the Square D C60 the same kind of breaker as the ABB E150 TEB just because both are UL489?
No. The Square D C60 is a miniature circuit breaker that mounts on DIN rail, while the ABB E150 series TEB is a molded-case 3-pole thermal magnetic breaker for panelboards and load centers. They share a listing standard family but not a form factor, mounting method, or pole count in the way a direct swap would require. If you are replacing an existing E150 TEB in a panel, stay with the E150 frame rather than moving to an MCB.
14) What is a thermal magnetic breaker protecting against, and is there a Square D equivalent?
Thermal magnetic means two trip elements in one breaker: a bimetal that responds to sustained overload and a magnetic element that trips fast on a short circuit. The ABB E150 carries an LI trip of exactly that type. On the Square D side, the PowerPacT B is also a thermal magnetic molded-case breaker, so it is the closest cross-brand family, though it will not drop into an ABB panel interior.
15) Is the 50A version ordered differently from the 15, 20 and 70 amp ones?
Ordering is by part number regardless. The 50A is TEB132050WL; the others are TEB132015WL, TEB132020WL and TEB132070WL. Give the full part number when you order so you get the amperage you sized for.
