Eaton CHF230 Double Pole Circuit Breaker 30 Amp

Product Description

The Eaton CHF230 is a 30-amp double pole circuit breaker designed for residential and light commercial load centers. It occupies 2 spaces in a compatible CH-series panel and provides overcurrent and short-circuit protection for 240-volt branch circuits. The built-in trip flag indicator gives a clear visual confirmation of a tripped condition, allowing technicians to identify faulted circuits without testing each breaker individually. Electricians install this breaker during new construction, panel upgrades, or direct replacement of a failed breaker in CH-series load centers.

This breaker is suited for 240-volt residential and light commercial applications including HVAC equipment, water heaters, dryers, and other double-pole branch circuits. Its plug-on design is compatible with CH-series load centers, making it a straightforward replacement or addition during panel work. The trip flag indicator reduces diagnostic time on service calls where multiple circuits may be affected.
