Product FAQs
5 answers
What equipment is the CHB130GF designed to be installed in?
It is engineered for bolt-on installation in Cutler-Hammer Type PB and Type PH panelboards, as well as select meter panels and multi-metering modules.
Can I use a standard CH series breaker instead of the CHB130GF?
No. The CHB series features a bolt-on mounting design typically used in commercial panels, whereas the standard CH series uses a plug-on connection. They are not interchangeable.
What level of ground fault protection does the CHB130GF provide?
This breaker provides Class A personnel protection with a 5mA trip sensitivity. It is designed to detect low-level ground faults and interrupt power to prevent electrical shock.
How is the neutral connection wired on this GFCI breaker?
This breaker features a pigtail neutral wire that must be connected directly to the neutral bus bar in the panelboard to ensure proper ground fault detection.
What type of protection does the LIG trip unit provide?
The LIG designation means the thermal magnetic trip unit delivers Long-Time protection against overloads, Instantaneous protection against short circuits, and Ground-Fault protection for personnel safety.
