FAQ

What is the difference between a GV2L and a GV2ME circuit breaker?

The GV2L series, like this GV2L16, provides only magnetic (short-circuit) protection. The GV2ME series provides both thermal (overload) and magnetic (short-circuit) protection. A GV2L must be used with a separate thermal overload relay for complete motor protection.

Can the trip current be adjusted on this GV2L16?

No, the GV2L16 has a fixed magnetic trip setting of 14A. There is no adjustment dial for the trip current on this model.

What are the specifications of the included GVAD0110 auxiliary contact block?

The attached GVAD0110 is a front-mounted auxiliary contact block. It provides one normally open (NO) contact and one normally closed (NC) contact, typically used for signaling and interlocking in control circuits.
