Square D CH215 2-pole Circuit Breaker 15 Amp Plug-on

Product Description

The SQUARE D CH215 is a 2-pole, plug-on circuit breaker rated for 15 amps and 120/240 volts AC, designed for residential and light commercial load center installations. With a 10 kiloamp interrupting rating, it provides reliable overcurrent protection for branch circuits in panelboard applications. The plug-on mounting style allows fast, tool-free installation into compatible load centers. This breaker is a standard replacement or new-circuit addition installed by licensed electricians working on residential panel upgrades, home additions, or service calls requiring branch circuit protection.

The CH215 fits into load center applications where a 2-pole, 15 amp breaker is required to protect 240-volt branch circuits such as small appliance circuits, HVAC equipment, or dedicated outlet circuits. It accepts wire sizes from 14 to 8 AWG aluminum or 14 to 10 AWG copper, giving installers flexibility across common residential wiring gauges. This breaker suits both new construction panel builds and retrofit panel service work.
