Questions & Answers
Will this fit is a eaton br type box
Asked by Teera March 31, 2021Hello, this breaker is only compatible with our Cutler Hammer CH loadcenters. For a BR loadcenter, you will need a BR250. Regards, Eaton
What grade of wire should I run for 50 gallon electric hot water heater 20 amps from the panel box
Asked by Ed November 1, 2020Minimum requirement for a 240 volt water heater is 30 amps. That would require a 10/2 romex with ground. Your circuit breaker size should also be a double pole 30 amp.
Is this considered a gfci for spa breaker
Asked by Manny October 26, 2020No, this breaker does not provide GFCI protection needed for a spa.
I have a new EATON box model CH8L125SP will this breaker work in my new box?
Asked by Doc October 21, 2020Yes
My CH breaker can no longer be reset and is fused to the bus bar connection. How would I get warnty rplcmnt?
Asked by Fitznog September 13, 2020First of all, Home Depot is a retail store. Your CH series loadcenter and breaker are both covered by a lifetime warranty. You need to contact Eaton directly about your issue and follow their instructions which I am sure will involve having a licensed electrical contractor replace the CH series loadcenter with a new CH series loadcenter and breakers obtained through an Eaton/Cutler-Hammer distributor. The distributor will probably take the old loadcenter with breaker fused to the bus and issue credit for the replacement parts. It's crucial you start by contacting Eaton or an Eaton distributor to start the process. You should ask about labor as well. As far as I know the parts are warranted, but I suspect you will have to pay for labor.

The Eaton breakers all have mystery designations of BD, BR, CH or CL. What do these mean?
Asked by BigSmiler January 18, 2020These refer to the panel series designation. Eaton makes replacement breakers for many series of panel. Be sure to match the breaker type to your specif panel series. The series of your panel should be inside the breaker cover door.
Other than the flag indicator, are there any differences between the CH250 and the CHF250? Are they 100% interchangeabl
Asked by Whynotstateitsomewhere September 14, 2019Yes, they are 100% interchangeable. The ONLY difference is the trip flag indicator and the same price too.
