Product FAQs

6 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the Eaton CHB150 circuit breaker?

The CHB150 is designed to bolt into Cutler-Hammer Type PB and Type PH panelboards, as well as compatible meter panels.

How does the CHB150 connect to the panel busbar?

This breaker features a bolt-on connection, which provides a highly secure attachment to the panel busbar compared to standard plug-on residential breakers.

What wire sizes are accepted by the box lugs on the CHB150?

The box lug terminals on this 50A breaker accept copper or aluminum (Cu/Al) conductors ranging from 8 AWG to 4 AWG.

Is the CHB150 a Cutler-Hammer or Eaton breaker?

Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer, so this breaker may be labeled under either the Eaton or Cutler-Hammer brand. Both are the exact same CHB series bolt-on breaker.

What type of trip mechanism does the CHB150 use?

It utilizes a thermal magnetic trip unit with fixed long-time and instantaneous (LI) trip functions to protect against overloads and short circuits.

Can I use a CHB150 in place of a standard CH plug-on breaker?

No. While they share similar electrical characteristics, CHB breakers are strictly bolt-on and are designed for commercial PB and PH panelboards. Standard CH breakers are plug-on and fit residential load centers.

    Was what I needed

    This breaker was exactly what I needed. I did not give it 5 starts because it was SUPER expensive for this frame size breaker.
