EATON CH Series Thermal Magnetic Circuit Breakers
Eaton CH Series thermal magnetic circuit breakers are installed in CH-type loadcenters for preventing electrical damage to connected devices primarily due to short circuits. They are a type of ground fault circuit breaker used in wet or outdoor conditions. These circuit breakers are generally u...sed in applications involving metal halide, sodium or mercury HID (high-intensity discharge) lighting.Read more
Features
- Eaton CH Series circuit breakers have a sliding handle with ON & OFF indication positions for easy identification of the breaker's status.
- They have a single pole for connecting to a single circuit.
- Selected models having a GF suffix further feature 5mA ground fault indication for enhanced safety.
- Circuit breakers having an HM suffix are high-magnetic rated for handling high inrush current (maximal instantaneous input current) .
- Circuit breakers having an HID suffix are suitable for switching high-intensity discharge lighting circuits and dissipating the increased heat generated due to increased current flow.
Compatible Accessories
- Eaton CHB Breaker Mounting Base: These circuit breakers combine with this mounting base for surface & DIN rail-mounted cable-in / cable-out applications.
Standards and Approvals
- UL 489
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the electrical ratings of these Eaton CH Series thermal magnetic circuit breakers?
Eaton CH Series thermal magnetic circuit breakers have a voltage rating of 120 / 240V, current rating of 20A and an interrupt rating of 10kAIC.
What are the advantages of using ground fault circuit breakers?
GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) breakers offer protection from electric shock in areas where the electrical supply may come in contact with water. These ground fault circuit breakers instantaneously break the circuit when any leakage in the electrical current is detected, decreasing the risk of shock & electrocution.
What wire gauges are suitable for wiring these Eaton CH Series thermal magnetic circuit breakers?
#14-8 AWG wires are suitable for wiring these Eaton CH Series thermal-magnetic circuit breakers.
