Eaton ch-chf220 Double Pole Circuit Breaker 20 Amp Type Ch

Product Description

The EATON ch-chf220 is a 20-amp, 240-volt double pole Type CH circuit breaker designed as a direct replacement component in residential and light commercial electrical panels. It provides overcurrent protection for 240-volt branch circuits, tripping automatically when current exceeds the rated amperage to protect wiring and connected equipment. The breaker is 1.5 inches wide and fits the standard CH loadcenter bus configuration. Licensed electricians install this part during panel upgrades, service replacements, or new branch circuit additions.

This breaker is suited for residential service panels and light commercial loadcenters using the Type CH breaker format. It handles double-pole 240-volt loads such as electric dryers, water heaters, HVAC disconnect circuits, and similar two-wire branch circuits. It replaces the CH-CH220 and is commonly specified when an existing breaker fails to hold or trips on nuisance faults under normal load conditions.

Key Features

• 20-amp double pole configuration for 240-volt branch circuit protection
• 1.5-inch wide form factor fits standard Type CH panel slots
• Direct replacement for CH-CH220

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code) requirements. De-energize the panel at the utility disconnect or main breaker before handling any internal panel components. Verify the panel accepts Type CH breakers before installation. Do not install a breaker rated above the wire gauge and circuit load requirements for the branch circuit being protected.
