Eaton ch-cl115 Circuit Breaker 15A Single Pole 120/240V

Product Description

The EATON ch-cl115 is a Type CL Classified thermal magnetic circuit breaker rated at 15 amps and 120/240 volts AC. It is a single-pole, single-phase breaker with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating, designed as a classified replacement breaker for use in load centers that accept plug-on style breakers. The CL type classification means it is engineered to fit specific competing panel brands while meeting UL standards for that product category. Licensed electricians install this breaker during panel upgrades, service replacements, or new circuit additions in residential and light commercial electrical systems.

This breaker is suited for residential electrical panels requiring a classified plug-on breaker replacement. It accepts 14 to 4 AWG copper or aluminum wire, making it compatible with a wide range of branch circuit conductors. The thermal magnetic trip mechanism provides both overload protection and short-circuit protection. Its rated temperature range runs from 60 to 75 degrees C, consistent with standard branch circuit wiring requirements. The compact form factor measures 3 inches in length, 1 inch in width, and 3 inches in height, fitting standard single-pole spaces.

Compatibility

The ch-cl115 is a Type CL Classified breaker compatible with Square D Homeline load centers, as noted in the product description. Verify panel compatibility and CL classification acceptance before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always shut off the main breaker and verify the panel is de-energized before handling any breaker or bus bar. Ensure the wire gauge and conductor material match the breaker rating and panel requirements. Do not exceed the breaker's 15 amp or 10 kAIC interrupt ratings for the intended circuit application.
