Customer Reviews for Eaton BR 90 Amp 120/240 Volts 2-Pole Circuit Breaker

Used the BR260 for our EV Charger install about a year ago. We barely use our home charger since our car came with free charging. We maybe charge at home once a month or less. The last time we used it, the charger kept giving us leakage alarms and stopped charging. Then eventually the charger would shut off right when it started to charge our car. Finally I decided to shut off the breaker and have the electrician come out. But even with the breaker OFF, the charger was still getting power! The contacts in the breaker must have fused together. Of course the breaker was totally fried. (See attached photos) Good thing our house didn't burn down due to the faulty breaker!

There's a lot of pressure to getting the right breaker for so many reasons! Between Home Depot's app description, and YouTube videos… Not only did I get the right breaker but it was a potentially expensive fix that only cost $20 and two hours of my life! I greatly appreciate the self help that's available nowadays, and the quality of this product!

Either the QAQC is horrible or this is a used part. It’s a dual breaker and only one line has power the other 0 V and a screw is stripped out.

Ordered it online; came as shown in picture (without being in a plastic casing). Looks worse than my 22+ yrs old other breakers in the panel. The switch does not reset. Horrible experience. Home Depot have deteriorated in the last few yrs, can not trust them anymore. Out of 5 purchases in the last couple yrs from HD, 4 have been returned due to issues created by HD (repacked/resold returned item, allow electric parts to become compromised and still sell them, etc)

All of the 2-pole breakers at my store lack the hole for the hold down screw. I am trying to use the Eaton BREQS125 hold down screw, the pictures on the site show the breakers with the hole, the model number and SKU match, but there is no hole in any of the breakers.Either Eaton or HomeDepot has swapped out the model without changing the information/picture. I had to order a breaker online in order to install the panel correctly.

This lasted 4 months before it melted/caught fire. Ironically, the breaker never tripped. Would NOT recommend

Worked fine in my Eaton, Solar Ready 200 amp panel.

Awsome Breakers!!!

Installed this product by a certified Electrician in August of 2017. I also had it inspected by the country to make sure everything was done by code. The breaker is hooked up from the main panel and goes to my garage in a sub panel where its broken in two 50Amp, each for two EV chargers (40A and 32A). One day, I happened to go in the basement and it smelled like something was burning like rotten fish. Tracked the smell to the circuit breaker where the 100 amp was warm and I could smell the burning. I immediately turned it off. Luckily I was home that day or else my house would've been in flames. The breaker never tripped.

The product was exactly what I needed thank you!

Replaced old breaker for new unit to be used with new A/C.
