Description
Part of the Fire-Guard series, the Eaton BRL215AF is a 2-pole, 15A branch/feeder AFCI breaker. It delivers arc-fault mitigation for 120/240VAC applications using a common trip mechanism. This plug-on unit fits Eaton Type BR load centers and includes a pigtail neutral. Replaced by the BRL215CAF in newer catalogs, it remains essential for specific existing panels.Specifications

Product FAQs
5 answersWhich load centers are compatible with the BRL215AF circuit breaker?
This breaker is designed exclusively for Eaton Type BR load centers. It is not compatible with Eaton Type CH panels or load centers from other manufacturers.
Does the BRL215AF require a plug-on neutral panel?
No, this breaker features a pigtail neutral connection. It can be installed in standard Eaton Type BR load centers by connecting the coiled white pigtail wire directly to the panel neutral bus.
What is the difference between the BRL215AF and the BRL215CAF?
The BRL215AF is a branch/feeder AFCI, while the BRL215CAF is a combination AFCI (CAFCI). Combination AFCIs detect a wider range of arcing faults and are required by newer electrical codes, though the BRL215AF is still used for specific existing panel replacements.
How does the trip mechanism function on the BRL215AF?
This breaker features an internal common trip mechanism. If an overcurrent or arc fault is detected on either pole, both poles will trip simultaneously to disconnect power to the entire 120/240VAC circuit.
What type of arc fault protection does the BRL215AF provide?
It provides branch/feeder arc fault mitigation, which is designed to detect high-current arcing faults that can occur from line to neutral or line to ground. This helps reduce the risk of electrical fires in parallel with the load.
