Eaton ch-cl120 Type Cl Circuit Breaker 20A 1P 120/240V

Product Description

The EATON ch-cl120 is a Type CL classified plug-in circuit breaker rated at 20 amps, 1 pole, and 120/240 volts with a 10kA interrupt rating. Classified breakers are designed to fit load centers from multiple manufacturers where the original breaker is unavailable or discontinued. This breaker provides overcurrent and short-circuit protection in residential and light commercial electrical panels. It is installed by licensed electricians during panel upgrades, service calls, or circuit additions where a classified replacement is required.

The ch-cl120 is suited for single-pole, 120/240-volt branch circuits in residential load centers. Its classified rating means it is tested and listed as a suitable replacement for breakers in panels from various manufacturers, making it a practical option for service work on mixed or older equipment. Typical applications include lighting circuits, outlet circuits, and small appliance branch circuits requiring 20-amp protection.

Key Features

• 20-amp, 1-pole overcurrent protection for branch circuits
• 120/240-volt rated for standard residential panel voltages
• 10kA interrupt rating handles typical residential fault currents
• Type CL classified listing allows installation in load centers from multiple manufacturers
• Plug-in design for straightforward panel installation

Compatibility

Designed as a Type CL classified replacement circuit breaker suitable for use in load centers from various manufacturers where a classified breaker is an accepted substitute per the panel labeling and listing requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. Always shut off the main breaker and verify the panel is de-energized before handling any breakers or bus connections. Confirm that the load center is listed to accept Type CL classified breakers before installation, as not all panels permit classified devices. Use appropriate PPE and follow arc-flash safety procedures when working inside an energized enclosure.
