Product FAQs

6 answers
What panelboards are compatible with the CHB390 circuit breaker?

The CHB390 is designed for use in Eaton and Cutler-Hammer Type PB and Type PH panelboards. It features a bolt-on mounting style and is not compatible with standard plug-on loadcenters.

Are Type CH and Type CHB breakers interchangeable?

No. Type CHB breakers, like the CHB390, have a bolt-on mounting style for commercial PB and PH panelboards. Type CH breakers use a plug-on design for residential loadcenters. They cannot be swapped.

What type of wire can I use with the CHB390 terminals?

The CHB390 features box lug terminals that are rated for both copper (Cu) and aluminum (Al) conductors. They accept wire gauges from 4 AWG up to 1/0 AWG.

What does the LI trip function mean on the CHB390?

The LI designation indicates that the breaker provides Long-Time and Instantaneous trip functions. This is standard thermal-magnetic protection, where the thermal element protects against mild overloads and the magnetic element reacts instantly to severe short circuits.

Is there a difference between Eaton and Cutler-Hammer for the CHB390?

No. Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer, so the CHB390 is the exact same breaker whether it is branded as Eaton or Cutler-Hammer. They are fully interchangeable.

Can the CHB390 be used for HVAC equipment?

Yes. The CHB390 is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires this specific rating.

    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.
