Product FAQs
8 answersWhat panels is the Eaton CLCAF115 classified to be installed in?
It is UL classified for use in General Electric Type THQ, Siemens Type QP, Murray Type MP, and Square D Homeline load centers.
Can I use the CLCAF115 in an Eaton BR load center?
No. The CL series is specifically designed and UL classified for competitor panels. For Eaton BR panels, use the BRCAF115 or BRN115AF instead.
Does the CLCAF115 require a dedicated neutral connection?
Yes, this breaker features a pigtail neutral that must be connected to the panel neutral bus bar for the arc fault detection circuitry to function properly.
What type of arc fault protection does the CLCAF115 provide?
It is a Combination Type AFCI, meaning it detects both parallel and series arcing faults to protect branch circuit wiring and connected extension cords.
What wire sizes are accepted by the box lugs on the CLCAF115?
The box lugs accept 14 to 4 AWG aluminum or copper wire, accommodating standard 15A branch circuit wiring as well as upsized conductors for voltage drop considerations.
What does the 10kAIC rating on the CLCAF115 mean for my installation?
The 10kAIC rating indicates the maximum fault current the breaker can safely interrupt at 120/240VAC without sustaining damage. This is standard for most residential applications.
Is the CLCAF115 a direct replacement for Square D Homeline AFCI breakers?
Yes, as a UL classified breaker, the CLCAF115 is tested and approved to safely replace Square D Homeline AFCI breakers in compatible load centers.
How does the CLCAF115 connect to the panel bus bar?
It utilizes a plug-in connection type, allowing it to snap directly onto the bus bar of compatible GE, Siemens, Murray, or Square D Homeline panels.
