Eaton hom2020 Tandem Circuit Breaker 20A/20A 2-pole

Product Description

The EATON hom2020 is a tandem miniature circuit breaker designed for residential electrical panels. It houses two independent 20-amp, single-pole circuits in a single one-pole panel space, making it a practical solution when a loadcenter is full and additional circuit capacity is needed. The molded-case construction provides overload and short-circuit protection for branch circuits. Licensed electricians install this breaker in compatible Homeline loadcenters as part of panel expansion or circuit addition work.

The hom2020 is suited for residential branch circuit applications where space in the electrical panel is limited. Its tandem configuration allows two 20-amp circuits to occupy the slot of a single standard breaker. Typical applications include adding circuits for kitchen appliances, laundry equipment, or general-purpose outlets without replacing the existing panel. It is intended for indoor residential loadcenter use.

Key Features

• Tandem design provides two 20-amp circuits in a single panel slot
• Molded-case construction for reliable overload and short-circuit protection
• 20A/20A rating supports standard residential branch circuit loads
• 2-pole tandem configuration maximizes loadcenter capacity

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or addition for compatible Homeline residential loadcenters that accept tandem breakers. Verify the panel directory or loadcenter label to confirm tandem breaker positions are available before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the NEC and all applicable local codes. De-energize the panel and verify the main breaker is off before handling any breaker or bus connection. Confirm the loadcenter is rated to accept tandem breakers in the intended slot before installation. Do not install in a panel position not designated for tandem devices.
