20 Year old GE Circuit Breaker
20 Year old GE Circuit Breaker
(OP)
Does anyone know what "TPVVF" indicates when refering to a General Electric circuit breaker? The breaker is about 20 years old. More specifically the breaker in question is descibed as a TPVVF 3608. I need to replace this breaker, but I need to know what I've got, before knowing how to replace it. I've contacted GE, but have not heard back from them as of yet.
Thanks,
Thanks,
