Square D CH235 Circuit Breaker 2-pole 35 Amp 120/240V

Product Description

The SQUARE D CH235 is a 2-pole, plug-on load center circuit breaker rated for 35 amps at 120/240 volts AC. It provides overcurrent protection in residential and light commercial electrical panels, interrupting fault currents up to 10 kiloamps (kA). The plug-on mounting design allows for direct installation into compatible load centers without additional hardware. Licensed electricians install this breaker during new construction, panel upgrades, and circuit additions where a 240-volt double-pole breaker is required.

The CH235 is suited for 120/240 VAC load centers in residential and light commercial applications. Typical uses include dedicated circuits for appliances, HVAC equipment, water heaters, and other double-pole loads requiring 35-amp overcurrent protection. The breaker accepts wire sizes ranging from 14 to 8 AWG on the line side and 14 to 10 AWG on the load side, accommodating standard branch circuit wiring.

Key Features

• 35-amp current rating for 240-volt double-pole branch circuits
• 10 kA interrupting rating for fault current protection
• Plug-on mounting for direct load center installation
• Accepts 14 to 8 AWG wire for flexible conductor sizing
• 2-pole design provides simultaneous trip on both legs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style plug-on replacement circuit breaker for compatible SQUARE D load centers accepting CH-series breakers.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. Always shut off the main breaker and verify the panel is de-energized before installing or replacing any circuit breaker. Confirm the load center is rated to accept plug-on CH-series breakers before installation. Secure all conductor terminations to the breaker lugs per the wire manufacturer and NEC torque requirements.
