Eaton Corporation BR220 Double Pole Circuit Breaker 20A

Product Description

The EATON CORPORATION BR220 is a 20-amp, double-pole interchangeable circuit breaker rated for 120/240 volts. It is designed for use in fullsize residential load centers and panelboards where branch circuit overcurrent protection is required. At 2 inches wide, it occupies a standard two-pole breaker slot. The BR220 provides overcurrent and short-circuit protection for 240-volt loads such as HVAC equipment, water heaters, dryers, and similar double-pole branch circuits. Licensed electricians install this breaker during new construction, panel upgrades, and service calls requiring branch circuit replacement or addition.

This breaker is suited for fullsize residential load center applications operating at 120/240 volts. It fits standard interchangeable-style panel configurations. The double-pole design makes it appropriate for protecting two-wire, 240-volt branch circuits as well as multi-wire branch circuits sharing a neutral. Typical installations include residential service panels in single-family and multi-family dwellings where a fullsize, double-pole slot is available.
