About This Product
Eaton's Residential CH Circuit Breakers provide premium overload protection. The Type CH circuit breakers trip to the OFF position, eliminating nuisance callbacks. Eaton's Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCIs) use advanced electronic technology to reduce fire hazards in electrical circuits and the effects of persistent arcing faults that may pose a risk of fire under certain conditions. The CHF family also includes a trip flag to differentiate between a trip and the breaker being turned off. The thermal-magnetic trip curve avoids nuisance tripping on mild overloads while reacting almost instantaneously to severe short-circuit conditions. Multiple breakers have an internal common trip connection to operate all poles simultaneously. Handles are marked with ON-OFF indication and ampere rating of the breaker.
