Eaton ch-cht1515 Tandem Circuit Breaker 15/15A 120/240V

Product Description

The EATON ch-cht1515 is a Type CHT twin tandem circuit breaker rated for two independent 15-amp, 1-pole circuits in a single breaker slot. Operating at 120/240 volts with a 10,000-amp interrupting capacity (10kAIC), it provides overcurrent protection for residential and light commercial electrical panels where space is limited. This breaker is installed by licensed electricians when a panel requires additional circuits without expanding the enclosure footprint. It fits CH-series load centers and delivers the same protection as two standard single-pole breakers while occupying only one slot.

The ch-cht1515 is suited for residential panels where circuit capacity needs to be increased without replacing the load center. Common applications include adding circuits for kitchen appliances, lighting branch circuits, or general-purpose outlets in homes and small commercial buildings. It is designed for use in CH-series load centers and is a practical solution when a panel is full but additional overcurrent protection is required.

Key Features

• Tandem (twin) design provides two 15-amp circuits in a single panel slot
• 10,000-amp interrupting capacity (10kAIC) for standard residential service
• Rated at 120/240 volts for compatibility with single-phase residential systems
• 1-pole configuration per circuit, ideal for 120-volt branch circuits
• Type CHT designation fits CH-series Eaton load centers that accept tandem breakers

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and space-saving solution for EATON CH-series load centers that accept Type CHT tandem circuit breakers.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the panel and verify absence of voltage before installing or removing any breaker. Confirm the load center accepts tandem breakers in the intended slot position, as not all slots in a CH-series panel may support tandem devices. Do not force the breaker into a slot not rated for tandem use.
