Frequently Asked Questions

What breakers are compatible with Eaton CH?

Eaton CH panels are built to be compatible only with Eaton CH breakers. This includes single-pole, double-pole, and various specialty models such as AFCI, GFCI, and dual-function breakers. CH breakers feature a distinctive tan handle for easy identification and a quick-make, quick-break mechanism for enhanced safety.

 

While some third-party breakers may claim compatibility with Eaton CH panels, it is important to use only Eaton CH breakers to ensure proper fit, optimal performance, and compliance with safety standards. Always refer to the panel’s labeling and the manufacturer’s guidelines to verify breaker compatibility and ensure a safe and effective electrical installation.

What is the difference between Eaton CH and CHF breakers?

CH breakers are the standard breakers for Eaton CH panels and are easily identifiable by their distinctive tan handles. CHF breakers are the premium version within the Eaton CH series and have all the standard features of CH breakers along with additional enhancements such as advanced trip diagnostics (more precise information about the cause of a trip). CHF breakers often have improved construction materials and design, which can lead to longer service life and better performance under demanding conditions. 

What is the difference between CH and CHB breakers?

CH breakers are designed for residential and light commercial applications, with a quick-make, quick-break mechanism. They have distinctive tan handles and are available in various configurations, including single-pole, double-pole, and specialty models.

Unlike the plug-on design of CH breakers, CHB breakers use a bolt-on connection method, providing a more secure and stable installation suited for commercial and industrial applications.

Can you use different breakers on an Eaton panel?

Using breakers other than those specifically designed and listed for an Eaton panel is not recommended. Eaton panels are engineered to work with Eaton breakers, such as the CH and BR series, depending on the panel type. Each breaker series is designed to meet specific safety and performance standards that align with the corresponding Eaton panel specifications.

While some third-party manufacturers might produce breakers that claim compatibility with Eaton panels, using these can result in improper fit, poor connection, and safety hazards, from overheating to failure to trip during an overload.

Are CH and QO breakers interchangeable?

CH and QO breakers are not interchangeable. Eaton CH breakers are designed specifically for Eaton CH panels, while Square D QO breakers are designed specifically for Square D QO panels. Each type of breaker has unique physical and electrical characteristics that ensure proper fit and function within their respective panel types. Using a CH breaker in a QO panel, or vice versa, is not recommended and can result in improper fit, poor connections, and potential safety hazards such as overheating or failure to trip during an overload.
