Will an Eaton BR AFCI breaker fit my existing panel?
The Eaton BR Series AFCI Circuit Breaker 15A/20A Single-Pole 120V 10kAIC Plug-On fits only a Type BR loadcenter, because its plug-on footprint is BR specific.
- Check the label inside the panel door for Type BR before ordering.
- It gives arc fault (AFCI) protection only, for bedroom, living area and general lighting circuits.
- The pigtail version, with a white neutral wire for the neutral bar, fits any Type BR loadcenter, old or new.
| Eaton BR Series AFCI Circuit Breaker 15A/20A Single-Pole 120V 10kAIC Plug-On | |
|---|---|
| Feature Option | Plug-on Neutral, Pigtail |
| Choose Amperage Rating | 15A, 20A |
Should I put a 15A or a 20A Eaton BR AFCI breaker on this circuit?
Match the Eaton BR Series AFCI Circuit Breaker 15A/20A Single-Pole 120V 10kAIC Plug-On to the wire in the wall: #14 conductor takes the 15A, #12 conductor takes the 20A.
- A 20A breaker on #14 wire is the classic mistake, and it defeats the overcurrent protection.
- The breaker lug takes #14 through #8 AWG, copper or aluminum.
Does the Eaton BR AFCI breaker also give me GFCI protection for a kitchen or bath circuit?
No, the Eaton BR Series AFCI Circuit Breaker 15A/20A Single-Pole 120V 10kAIC Plug-On is arc fault only, so a kitchen counter or bath circuit takes the Eaton GFCI Circuit Breaker Single-Pole 120V 10kAIC Plug-On Ground Fault Protection.
- The single-pole GFCI breaker gives ground fault protection at 5 mA, the sensitivity used where people and water meet.
- Bedroom, living area and general lighting circuits that only call for arc fault are what the AFCI breaker is for.
Will the Eaton single-pole GFCI breaker fit my existing panel?
It fits a load center that takes Eaton BR-style plug-on breakers, because the Eaton GFCI Circuit Breaker Single-Pole 120V 10kAIC Plug-On Ground Fault Protection seats directly onto the panel bus.
- It is not a bolt-on breaker and will not mount in a panel that needs bolt-on attachment.
- A single-pole unit takes one 1-inch space, with a body depth of 4 inches.
- When it trips on a ground fault, the handle goes to center and the GFI indicator shows.
Can the Eaton single-pole GFCI breaker be used on a 240V circuit?
No, the Eaton GFCI Circuit Breaker Single-Pole 120V 10kAIC Plug-On Ground Fault Protection wires as one hot and a neutral, so a 240V load takes the Eaton BR Series GFCI Circuit Breaker, Two-Pole, 120/240V.
- The two-pole GFCI comes in 30A and 60A, and the 30A covers a well pump or a spa feeder.
- Its common trip opens both poles together during a fault.
- The 50A and 60A single-pole GFCI parts are still 120V, so do not use them as a two-pole substitute.
| Eaton BR Series GFCI Circuit Breaker, Two-Pole, 120/240V | |
|---|---|
| Amperage Option | 30A, 60A |
Can I swap a standard two-pole BR breaker for the Eaton BR two-pole GFCI breaker in an existing panel?
Yes, the Eaton BR Series GFCI Circuit Breaker, Two-Pole, 120/240V lands in the same BR two-pole position, and the difference at install is the wiring.
- The circuit neutral lands on the breaker and the coiled white pigtail goes on the panel neutral bar.
- A circuit that shares a neutral with another circuit has to be separated first.
- Lugs take #14-4 AWG, so existing conductors in that range reland directly.
Will the Eaton BR 70A two-pole breaker fit my Eaton BR load center?
Yes, if it is a Type BR panel: the Eaton Type BR 70A 2-Pole Plug-On Circuit Breaker 120/240V with 10 kAIC Interrupt Rating snaps onto the bus with no mounting hardware.
- It will not fit a CH panel, since BR and CH bus stabs belong to different breaker families.
- For a Type CH panel, order the Eaton CH Series Two-Pole Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker 240V 10kAIC Common Trip instead.
- A two-pole BR breaker takes two full adjacent spaces, landing on both bus legs so it sees 240V.
Replacing an Eaton CH two-pole breaker, do I need to match the amperage exactly?
Match it to the circuit's wire size and load, not just the old breaker, then order the Eaton CH Series Two-Pole Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker 240V 10kAIC Common Trip for a Type CH loadcenter.
- A previous breaker may have been oversized, so check the wire before matching it.
- Each two-pole unit takes two adjacent 3/4-inch spaces in the loadcenter.
- Eaton lists it for main breaker duty in Type CH loadcenters, sized to the loadcenter's bus rating.
| Eaton CH Series Two-Pole Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker 240V 10kAIC Common Trip | |
|---|---|
| Amperage Option | 60A, 70A, 80A, 90A, 100A, 125A |
Is the Eaton CH three-pole breaker right for a three-phase rooftop unit in a small retail space?
Yes, for 240V or 208V three-phase equipment fed from a Type CH loadcenter, the Eaton CH Series Three-Pole Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker 240V 10kAIC Common Trip is the breaker.
- Match the amperage to the nameplate on the rooftop unit, and take three adjacent spaces.
- Where the nameplate calls for HACR-rated (heating and air conditioning) or fuse-only protection, follow the nameplate.
- A fault on any one pole opens all three, so a motor is not left single-phasing.
| Eaton CH Series Three-Pole Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker 240V 10kAIC Common Trip | |
|---|---|
| Choose Amperage Rating | 15A, 25A, 30A, 40A, 60A, 70A |
Will an Eaton CL two-pole breaker fit a Square D Homeline panel?
Yes, the Eaton CL Series 2-Pole Circuit Breaker 120/240V 10 kAIC Classified Replacement System is listed for Square D Homeline, GE Type THQ, Crouse-Hinds Type MP and Thomas and Betts Type TB panels, as well as Type CH loadcenters.
- Confirm the panel label allows classified breakers, since some labels restrict replacements to their own brand.
- On a property mixing CH and Homeline panels, one CL part number can cover both.
- Lugs take #14 through #4 AWG, copper or aluminum, across the whole amperage range.
| Eaton CL Series 2-Pole Circuit Breaker 120/240V 10 kAIC Classified Replacement System | |
|---|---|
| Amperage Option | 15A, 20A, 25A, 30A, 35A, 40A and 2 more |
| Security Feature | Standard |
Can I use an Eaton CHF breaker on an air conditioner or heat pump circuit?
Yes, the Eaton CHF Series 2-Pole Plug-On Circuit Breaker 120/240V 10 kAIC with Switching Neutral is HACR rated, the qualification for heating, air conditioning and refrigeration equipment circuits.
- Size it to the maximum overcurrent protection on the equipment nameplate, not to the wire alone.
- It plugs onto Type CH loadcenters only, and is not interchangeable with BR breakers.
| Eaton CHF Series 2-Pole Plug-On Circuit Breaker 120/240V 10 kAIC with Switching Neutral | |
|---|---|
| Amperage Option | 15A, 20A, 25A, 30A, 35A, 40A and 2 more |
| Security Feature | Standard |
What does an Eaton CHT twin half-slot breaker actually do for panel space?
The Eaton CHT Series Twin Single-Pole Plug-On Circuit Breaker 120/240V 10k puts two independent single-pole circuits into one full-size space, so you can add a circuit to a full panel.
- Each half carries its own handle and its own overcurrent protection.
- Confirm the panel label allows twin breakers in that position, since many loadcenters restrict which slots accept them.
- A 240V load needs the Eaton CH Series Two-Pole Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker 240V 10kAIC Common Trip instead.
| Eaton CHT Series Twin Single-Pole Plug-On Circuit Breaker 120/240V 10k | |
|---|---|
| Security Feature | Standard |
| Amperage | 15A, 20A |
| Amperage Option | 15-20A, 15-15A, Standard |
Will an Eaton QBHW breaker fit my existing panel, or do I need a specific type of panelboard?
It needs a panel whose breakers screw in, because the Eaton QBHW Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker 22kAIC with 120-240V Shunt Trip fastens with screws instead of clipping on.
- A panel built for plug-on breakers that snap over a stab will not seat it.
- Bolt-on is standard on commercial and industrial panelboards, which is where this breaker belongs.
- It is rated 22 kAIC, the fault current it can interrupt: check that against your panel's fault current.
| Eaton QBHW Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breaker 22kAIC with 120-240V Shunt Trip | |
|---|---|
| Pole Option | 1P, 2P, 3P |
| Security Feature | Standard |
| Voltage | 120/240V, 240V |
| Choose Amperage Rating | 15A, 20A, 25A, 30A, 35A, 40A and 6 more |
Which Eaton BAB breaker should I use on a parking lot or warehouse lighting circuit?
Use the HID rated version of the Eaton BAB Series Quicklag Thermal-Magnetic Circuit Breaker, Bolt-On, built to ride through the long startup inrush of high intensity discharge lighting.
- A standard breaker sized to the running load will nuisance-trip on that inrush.
- It is bolt-on, so the panelboard has to take bolt-on breakers rather than plug-on ones.
- It interrupts 10 kAIC, or 10,000 amperes, so check that against the fault current at your panel.
| Eaton BAB Series Quicklag Thermal-Magnetic Circuit Breaker, Bolt-On | |
|---|---|
| Security Feature | Shunt-Trip (Low Voltage), HID Rated |
| Voltage | 120/240V |
| Amperage Option | 10A |
| Pole Option | 1P, 2P |
How do I order the right Eaton Quicklag QC breaker to replace a failed one in a Quicklag panelboard?
Match the amperage of the breaker coming out and order the same rating of the Eaton Quicklag QC Single-Pole Thermal-Magnetic Circuit Breaker, 120/240V.
- With cable-in/cable-out terminations, a same-family replacement drops back into the same position and lands on the same conductors.
- Cable-in/cable-out means line and load land on lugs on the breaker, not on a bus stab.
- Do not step the amperage up to stop nuisance tripping, since the breaker is sized to the wire.
| Eaton Quicklag QC Single-Pole Thermal-Magnetic Circuit Breaker, 120/240V | |
|---|---|
| Amperage Option | 10 amperes, 15 amperes, 20 amperes, 30 amperes, 40 amperes |
What is the difference between an Eaton main breaker kit and just buying a main breaker?
The Eaton Main Breaker Kit Pow-R-Stock Series ED Single/Three Phase Top/Bottom Mount is the ED-frame breaker plus the mounting hardware that converts a main lug panel into a main breaker panel.
- A main lug panel has no main breaker: the feeder lands on lugs and protection sits upstream.
- A loose ED breaker alone comes without the mounting hardware to fit it in the panel.
- The kit mounts at the top or bottom of the panel, useful when the service feed enters from below.
Is 35 kAIC enough, or do I need the 65 kAIC version of the Eaton Pow-R-Xpress main breaker kit?
The available fault current at the panel decides it: if more than 35 kA reaches the panelboard, the Eaton Pow-R-Xpress Convertible Main Circuit Breaker Kit needs the 65 kAIC version.
- Take the number from the fault current study for that panel location.
- It is UL 67 Listed, the panelboard standard, which covers healthcare and school power systems.
| Eaton Pow-R-Xpress Convertible Main Circuit Breaker Kit | |
|---|---|
| Wire range Al/Cu | (1) #4-4/0, (1) 250-500 kcmil, (2) 3/0-250 kcmil or (1) 3/0-500 kcmil, (2) #2-500 kcmil, (1) #14-1/0 |
| Amperage Option | 125A, 200A |
| Max. Voltage | 240, 480 |
| kAIC rating | 35A, 65A |
| Configuration Option | Standard |
Will the Eaton main lug connector kit fit my Pow-R-Xpress panelboard?
It fits Pow-R-Xpress PRL1X/2X and PRL1A/2A panelboards: the Eaton Panelboard Main Lug Connector Kit 600A 1-Phase/3-Phase Pow-R-Xpress System is the main lug assembly for those four designations.
- Match the kit to the panelboard's main rating, not to the feeder breaker size upstream.
- It ships as a separate assembly you mount into the panelboard interior in the field.
- The same part number covers single-phase and three-phase panelboards in that range.

| Choose Amperage Rating | 100A, 225A, 400A, 600A |
Can the Eaton Type BR 125A main lug loadcenter be mounted outside?
Yes, if you order the outdoor enclosure of the Eaton Type BR Main Lug Loadcenter 125A 6/12 Circuit Single-Phase, with the same bus, rating and BR breaker fit as the indoor enclosure.
- Ordering the indoor enclosure for a wall exposed to weather is the mistake to avoid on this panel.
- It has no main breaker inside, so it has to be fed from a breaker upstream sized for the feeder.
- It is built for 120/240V single-phase three-wire service, not a three-phase system.
| Eaton Type BR Main Lug Loadcenter 125A 6/12 Circuit Single-Phase | |

Can I keep one breaker stock across an apartment portfolio of Eaton CH main lug loadcenters?
Yes, every configuration of the Eaton Type CH Main Lug Loadcenter, Single-Phase 120/240V, Copper Bus, indoor or outdoor, uses the same CH breakers.
- A tech pulling a 20A single pole does not need to know which building they are in.
- Outdoor boxes carry a box size code ending in R, and indoor codes drop the R.
- It is rated 25 kAIC, which covers most residential and light commercial services.

Can an Eaton three-phase BR loadcenter be used as service entrance equipment?
Yes, the Eaton Type BR Three-Phase Main Circuit Breaker Loadcenter is listed for service entrance use and ships with the neutral bonding strap already attached.
- It is a three-phase, four-wire panel rated 208Y/120V and 240V, not for single-phase 120/240V service.
- It takes Eaton Type BR 1-inch breakers.
- It has no feed-thru lugs, so feed a downstream panel from a branch breaker instead.

Can the Eaton CH loadcenter be mounted outdoors on the side of a house?
Yes, the Eaton CH Loadcenter, NEMA 3R Main Breaker Panel, Copper Bus comes in a NEMA 3R metallic enclosure rated for outdoor and wet-location use against rain and sleet.
- It is built for overhead-feed service entrances, so the feeder enters from the top.
- An integrated main breaker gives the service disconnect and overcurrent protection in the same enclosure.
- It is rated 120/240V single-phase, with the cover included.

Does the Eaton CH surface-mount loadcenter cover work on a recessed panel as well as a surface-mounted one?
Yes, the Eaton CH Surface-Mount Loadcenter Cover, NEMA 1, Sandalwood is a surface or flush universal front, so one part number covers both mounting conditions.
- On a multi-family turn, you stock one cover per space count rather than two.
- It is the cover only, and the loadcenter box and bus are not included.
- It is rated for indoor dry locations only, with no gasketing against rain.
| Eaton CH Surface-Mount Loadcenter Cover, NEMA 1, Sandalwood | |

| Choose Amperage Rating | 100A, 225A |
Do I need to buy fuses for the Eaton 60A air conditioning pullout disconnect?
No fuses are needed: the Eaton Air Conditioning Disconnect Non-Fusible Pullout Device 60A Outdoor Safety Switch breaks the circuit when the pullout block comes out, and overcurrent protection comes from the panel breaker upstream.
- If the condenser nameplate gives a maximum fuse size, use the Eaton DH Heavy-Duty Fusible Safety Switch, Three-Pole, 600V instead.
- It is built for outdoor installation alongside condensing units and heat pumps.
- Size from the nameplate, not tonnage: above 60A, use the non-fusible Eaton DH Heavy-Duty Safety Switch 100A Professional Power Disconnect.

Will the Eaton NEMA 3R galvanized AC disconnect work for my outdoor condensing unit?
Yes, the Eaton Air Conditioning Disconnect Switch Non-Fused Pullout NEMA 3R Galvanized Steel 120/240V has a NEMA 3R galvanized steel enclosure rated for rain, sleet and ice on an outdoor wall or condenser pad.
- Pick the 30A or 60A version to match the amperage on the equipment nameplate.
- Lugs take #14-3 AWG, copper or aluminum.
- It is rated 120/240V, so a 480V rooftop unit takes the Eaton DH Heavy-Duty Fusible Safety Switch, Three-Pole, 600V.

Does the Eaton DH heavy-duty fusible three-pole switch come with fuses installed?
No, the Eaton DH Heavy-Duty Fusible Safety Switch, Three-Pole, 600V has the Class H fuse clips, and the fuses are sized and bought separately to match the load.
- Class H is the standard non-current-limiting fuse clip arrangement, so Class H and Class K fuses drop in.
- Lugs take #14 through #2 AWG, copper or aluminum, on a 3-wire configuration.
- It serves as service entrance equipment once a neutral or ground lug kit is installed.
| Eaton DH Heavy-Duty Fusible Safety Switch, Three-Pole, 600V | |
|---|---|
| Enclosure / NEMA Rating | NEMA 12/3R Painted Galvanized |
| Amperage Option | 30 amperes, 100 amperes |
Should I order a fusible or non-fusible Eaton DH safety switch?
Order the Eaton DH Heavy-Duty Safety Switch 100A Professional Power Disconnect in its fusible build when the switch has to carry the overcurrent protection itself, and its non-fusible build when a breaker upstream already protects the circuit.
- Fusible is typical at a service disconnect or a motor branch circuit that needs its own fuses.
- Non-fusible suits a local disconnect within sight of an AC unit or rooftop motor.
- Fusible with neutral is for a circuit carrying a neutral you need to land and isolate.

What does the lever bypass on the Eaton 200A Single-Phase Meter Socket let an electrician do?
The lever bypass on the Eaton 200A Single-Phase Meter Socket with Lever Bypass and Barrel Lock shunts current around the jaws, so the meter can be pulled and reset without dropping power to the load.
- For occupied units or a retail tenant, meter swaps and testing happen without a service outage.
- It is a single-position socket, so it meters one service only.
- Line and load terminals take #6 through 350 kcmil, rated 200A at 600V.

Can I use the Eaton 200A ringless meter socket for an overhead drop, or only underground?
Either works: the Eaton 200A Single-Position Ringless Meter Socket, Over/Under Feed takes service from the top for an overhead drop or from the bottom for an underground lateral.
- Ringless means the cover locks over the meter without a separate sealing ring.
- Ringless and ring-type are not interchangeable, so order the style your serving utility specifies.
- It is UL Listed and carries a Central Maine Power utility approval.

How many tenants will the Eaton 5-socket aluminum bus meter pack serve, and at what amperage each?
The Eaton Aluminum Bus Meter Pack, NEMA 3R, 5-Socket serves five tenants, with each socket rated 125A at 120/240V, single-phase in and single-phase out.
- It suits a five-unit apartment building or a small strip of light commercial suites.
- It has no bypass, so a meter pull drops that tenant's service.
- The tenant breakers are ordered separately, so put them on the same order.

What is an Eaton multiple metering meter stack used for in an apartment building?
The Eaton Multiple Metering Residential Meter Stack, Copper Bus, No Bypass is the centralized metering assembly that lets each tenant be metered and billed individually off one service.
- It stacks multiple meter positions in one vertical enclosure, so a meter room serves several units from one lineup.
- It measures 7.01 inches wide and 12.26 inches deep, and stands 48.5 inches tall.
- Power to a position drops when the utility removes the meter, so check your utility's bypass rules.
