Product FAQs
6 answers
What panels are compatible with the CH260GFT circuit breaker?
This breaker is designed exclusively for Eaton CH series load centers. It requires two 3/4-inch spaces and connects to the panel bus bar via a plug-on connection. It is not compatible with Eaton BR panels or load centers from other manufacturers.
What is the ground fault trip threshold for the CH260GFT?
This breaker provides Class A personnel ground fault protection. It is designed to trip when it detects a ground fault current of 5 mA, in accordance with UL 943 standards.
How is the neutral connection made for the CH260GFT?
This breaker features a pigtail neutral. The coiled white pigtail wire must be connected directly to the neutral bus bar in the load center to power the internal ground fault sensing circuitry.
What wire sizes are accepted by the terminals on the CH260GFT?
The box lug terminals on this 60A breaker accept 14 AWG to 4 AWG copper or aluminum wire. Ensure conductors are sized appropriately for the 60A rating and application.
Can I use this breaker to replace an older Cutler-Hammer CH260GFT?
Yes. Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer, and the CH series design remains the same. A new Eaton CH260GFT is the direct replacement for an older Cutler-Hammer breaker with the exact same catalog number.
Does the CH260GFT provide arc fault protection?
No, this is a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) only. It provides thermal-magnetic overload and short-circuit protection along with 5 mA ground fault protection, but it does not detect arc faults.

Customers say these electrical breakers are readily available when hard to find elsewhere. Many reviews mention fast shipping and accurate order fulfillment. Common feedback includes competitive pricing and proper packaging. Reviews note the products fit correctly and match specifications. While most highlight quick delivery times, some mention occasional supply delays. The ordering process receives praise for its simplicity.
I am hopeful this fairly new arc monitor circuit breaker idea is going to have a more longevity future. Founder Fred Kiko was an amazing man. Always room for safety inventions.
