Eaton CH345 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an Eaton CH three-pole breaker fit a Square D or Siemens load center?
No. The Eaton CH three-pole breaker is built for Type CH loadcenters only, and the CH bus stab is not interchangeable with other manufacturers' panels. It is also not the same as Eaton's BR line. If the panel interior is not labeled Type CH, this is the wrong breaker for it.
2) How much panel space does the Eaton CH 3-pole breaker take up?
It is a Type CH 3/4-inch standard breaker in a three-pole build, so it occupies three 3/4-inch spaces in the loadcenter. Overall the body measures 2.25 x 3.5 x 3.5 inches. Count three consecutive open spaces on the bus before you order.
3) What amperages does the Eaton CH 3-pole 240V breaker come in?
Two ratings: 45 amp (CH345) and 80 amp (CH3080). Both are three-pole, 240V, common trip, with the same 10 kAIC interrupting rating.
4) Does this breaker trip all three poles together if one phase faults?
Yes. It uses a common breaker trip, so an overcurrent on any single pole opens all three at once. That is what you need for three-phase motor loads and any multi-wire circuit that has to disconnect simultaneously.
5) Is the Eaton CH breaker UL listed for use as a branch circuit or main breaker?
It is UL 489 listed, the standard for molded case branch circuit and feeder breakers, and Eaton lists it under both main breaker CH and breaker type CH for Type CH loadcenters.
6) Can I use this 240V three-pole CH breaker on a 208Y/120 three-phase panel?
The breaker carries a 240V rating, which covers three-phase systems at or below that voltage such as 208Y/120 and 240 delta. It is not rated for 480V systems, so do not put it on a 480Y/277 panel.
7) I'm replacing an old three-pole breaker in a CH panel. Do I need to match the amperage exactly?
Match the rating to the circuit conductors and the load, not just to what came out. The CH three-pole is offered at 45 amp and 80 amp, and the lugs take #10 through 1/0 Cu or Al. If the existing conductors won't fall in that wire range or the load calc calls for a different ampere rating, pick the size the circuit requires rather than duplicating the old breaker.
