Eaton CHF250CS 50A Double Pole Circuit Breaker

Product Description

The Eaton CHF250CS is a 50-amp double pole circuit breaker designed for residential and light commercial panelboard applications. Each pole measures 0.75 inches wide for a total breaker width of 1.5 inches, making it compatible with standard tandem-style panel slots. The breaker ships in clamshell retail packaging and includes a trip flag indicator that provides a clear visual signal when the breaker has tripped. Licensed electricians and panel service technicians install this type of breaker during new construction, panel upgrades, and branch circuit replacements.

This double pole breaker is suited for 240-volt branch circuits commonly found in residential panels serving appliances, HVAC equipment, water heaters, and sub-panels. The CHF250CS fits the Cutler-Hammer CHF breaker line and is designed for use in compatible load centers. Its trip flag indicator allows for fast fault identification during service calls without requiring a meter to confirm trip status.
