One problem here is the instantaneous trip point of GE breakers. It is set at ~40 times the handle rating. Most other breakers are set at ~11 times the handle rating. You would have to have 800 amps of current flowing to trip a 20 amp GE breaker in its instantaneous range. If you can’t flow that much, then you are in the inverse time trip curve and the time to trip will be based on the amount of current flowing. Note that circuits that have 800 amps of short circuit current available at a receptacle are rare.
