TEF124070 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

TEF124070 - 70 Amp Circuit Breaker

If you're replacing an existing Type TEF circuit breaker, the TEF124070 is built to match the original specifications your electrical system was designed around. This 2-pole, 70 Amp molded case circuit breaker features an 18kA interrupting rating at 480VAC along with a factory-installed non-interchangeable thermal magnetic trip unit that provides overload and short-circuit protection. Load-side lugs are already included, so there's no need to source them separately. Whether you're performing routine maintenance or replacing a failed breaker, the goal is simple—install a breaker that fits correctly, carries the proper ratings, and works with your existing equipment. Built to last, the TEF124070 is intended for compatible commercial and industrial electrical systems where matching the original form, fit, and function matters.
