Description
Built to handle heavier 60A loads, this two-pole GFEP module monitors circuits for 30mA ground faults to shield sensitive equipment from electrical damage. It utilizes a pigtail neutral wire and thermal-magnetic trip technology for consistent performance. The plug-on design mounts into standard Eaton CH residential or commercial load centers. Rated for 10kA interrupting capacity, this HACR-rated component complies with UL 489 and UL 1053 requirements for dedicated equipment circuits.Specifications

Product FAQs
5 answersWhat panels accept the CH260EPD circuit breaker?
It is compatible with Eaton Type CH load centers and requires two standard 3/4-inch spaces for installation. It will not fit in Eaton BR series or other manufacturer panels.
What is the ground fault trip threshold for the CH260EPD?
As a Ground Fault Equipment Protector (GFEP), this breaker features a 30mA trip threshold. This is designed to protect equipment from damage, unlike Class A GFCI breakers which use a 5mA threshold for personnel protection.
Does the pigtail neutral need to be connected for a straight 240V load?
Yes. The pigtail neutral must be connected to the panel neutral bus bar even if the load circuit is strictly 240V. This connection supplies 120V power to the internal ground fault sensing circuitry.
Is the CH260EPD suitable for hot tub or pool equipment?
No. Hot tubs, pools, and similar applications require Class A GFCI protection with a 5mA trip threshold to protect personnel from shock hazards. This 30mA GFEP breaker is strictly for equipment protection, such as heat tracing or snow melting systems.
What does the LIG trip function code indicate on this breaker?
The LIG designation means the breaker provides Long-Time protection against overloads, Instantaneous protection against short circuits, and Ground Fault protection for equipment.

- CSChristine S.Verified BuyerReviewingEaton / Cutler-Hammer CH2100-LONG - 100A 2 Pole Molded Case Circuit BreakerI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars5/18/26Got a great refurbished breaker - saved a $6500 Service Replacement
When our main breaker frizzed out, the option we were presented with was replacing the entire panel and service due to the type and part - no longer produced for replacement parts. It would be a $6500 replacement.
We'll likely have to do it at some point but, for now, the replacement breaker we were able to source from Superbreakers (with a $25 warranty) was $5900 less expensive. installation ran a few hundred dollars and the tech said the part looked to be in excellent condition and was prepped for install as he would have hoped.
Very thankful for SuperBreakers!
