Product FAQs

7 answers
What type of loadcenter is the Eaton CHT1520 compatible with?

This breaker is designed for use in Eaton or Cutler-Hammer Type CH loadcenters. Because it is a CTL (Circuit Total Limiting) breaker, it must be installed in panel slots specifically notched to accept tandem breakers.

How are the circuits configured on the CHT1520 breaker?

The CHT1520 is a twin or tandem breaker that provides two independent circuits in a single slot. It features one 15-amp circuit and one 20-amp circuit, making it ideal for adding capacity to a full panel.

How much panel space does the CHT1520 require?

This twin breaker fits into a single 3/4-inch space in a compatible Type CH panel. This allows you to add two separate circuits without taking up two full breaker slots.

Can I install the CHT1520 in any Type CH panel slot?

No. As a CTL (Circuit Total Limiting) breaker, it features a physical rejection clip. It will only seat properly in panel slots that are specifically designed and approved for tandem breakers.

Does the CHT1520 provide ground fault or arc fault protection?

No. This is a standard thermal-magnetic breaker. It does not provide GFCI or AFCI protection.

Is the CHT1520 rated for switching duty and HVAC applications?

Yes. This breaker is SWD (Switching Duty) rated for standard lighting applications and HACR rated for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.

What is the UPC for the Eaton CHT1520?

The UPC for this twin circuit breaker is 782113631554.

    Great service

    Breaker was not sold in local box stores. Super breakers had them in stock and were quick to ship. Will keep them in mind when looking for other electrical items.
