Eaton CL120 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an Eaton Type CL breaker fit in a Square D, Siemens, or GE load center?
The Eaton Type CL is a 1-inch classified replacement breaker, which is what lets it go into panels other than Eaton's own. Classified means a third party has listed it for use as a replacement in specified other-brand load centers. What it does not do is cover every panel ever made, so match the panel's label to the breaker's classified listing on the carton before you install. In an Eaton CH-type panel it is a straight fit.
2) Can I use a single-pole Eaton CL breaker on a 240V circuit?
Not on its own. Each CL is single-pole and rated 120/240V, so one breaker protects one 120V branch circuit. The 240V half of the rating refers to its use across a 120/240V system, not to a single pole feeding a two-wire 240V load. For a 240V appliance circuit you need a two-pole device.
3) Which amperage Eaton CL breaker do I order for a standard 15A or 20A lighting and receptacle circuit?
CL115 is the 15A and CL120 is the 20A, and those two cover most general lighting and receptacle branch circuits. The full run is 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 and 50 amps (CL115, CL120, CL125, CL130, CL135, CL140, CL150), so water heaters and dryer-sized single-pole loads are covered by the upper end. Size the breaker to the conductor, not to the load you wish you had.
4) What wire sizes will the Eaton CL breaker lug accept?
The lug takes #14 through #4 AWG, copper or aluminum. That range covers a 15A circuit on #14 copper right through a 50A feed, and the Cu/Al rating means you do not need a separate breaker for aluminum branch wiring.
5) Is the Eaton CL breaker UL listed for code compliance on a commercial job?
It carries a UL 489 listing, which is the standard for molded case circuit breakers used as branch circuit overcurrent protection. That is what an inspector looks for on a panel schedule, and it is why the CL is acceptable in commercial panels as well as residential.
6) Does the Eaton Type CL take one full slot or is it a tandem?
One full 1-inch slot per breaker, single pole. It will not double up two circuits in one space the way a tandem does, so if your panel is full on spaces you are not gaining capacity by swapping to CL.
7) What kind of trip mechanism does the Eaton CL use, and will it nuisance trip on motor loads?
It is a thermal magnetic breaker: the thermal element handles sustained overloads with a time delay, and the magnetic element trips instantly on a short circuit. That time delay is what lets it ride through the normal inrush of a motor or compressor starting without tripping, while still opening on a real fault.
