Do It Best 500741 15A Single-pole Circuit Breaker

Product Description

The DO IT BEST 500741 is a single-pole, standard-trip circuit breaker rated at 15 amps and 120/240 volts, designed for use in CH-style load centers. It protects branch-circuit wiring from overheating and short-circuit conditions, interrupting fault current at up to 10,000 amps interrupting capacity (AIC). A built-in trip flag indicator provides a visible status signal when the breaker has tripped. Electricians install this breaker as a direct slot-in replacement or new-installation device in compatible CH load centers across residential and light commercial applications.

This breaker is suited for single-pole, 120-volt branch circuits in residential CH load centers, covering general-purpose lighting, outlet, and appliance circuits. Its standard-trip thermal-magnetic design responds to both sustained overloads and instantaneous short-circuit events, making it appropriate for typical household branch circuits protected under NEC guidelines.

Designed for use in CH load centers as stated by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize the load center and verify the main breaker is off before handling any breaker or bus connection. Confirm the panel accepts CH-style breakers before installation. Do not exceed the breaker ampere rating when sizing branch-circuit conductors.
