Description
Part of the CH family, this 20-amp single-pole GFCI breaker delivers 5mA ground-fault protection for residential and commercial wet locations. It is specifically designed to fit Eaton CH plug-on neutral (PON) load centers. The PON connection attaches straight to the neutral bar, eliminating the traditional pigtail wire for a cleaner, faster installation. Replacing the older CH120GFPN, this 10 kAIC rated unit includes continuous self-testing capabilities and a visual trip indicator.Specifications

Product FAQs
5 answersCan I install the CHFP120GF in an older Eaton CH loadcenter?
No. The CHFP120GF is a Plug-On Neutral (PON) breaker and lacks a neutral pigtail wire. It is exclusively compatible with Eaton CH Plug-On Neutral loadcenters. If you have a legacy CH panel without a PON neutral bar, you must use a standard pigtail-style CH GFCI breaker.
How does the plug-on neutral connection work on the CHFP120GF?
The plug-on neutral design eliminates the traditional white pigtail wire. The breaker features a metal clip that connects directly to the distributed neutral rail inside a compatible Eaton CH PON loadcenter. This reduces wiring time and frees up gutter space.
What type of fault protection does this breaker provide?
The CHFP120GF provides Class A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection to detect leakage currents, alongside standard thermal-magnetic protection for overloads and short circuits. It also features an internal self-test function to continuously verify the ground fault circuitry is operational.
Is the CHFP120GF interchangeable with Eaton BR breakers?
No. The CHFP120GF is a Type CH breaker with a 3/4-inch pole width. It cannot be installed in Eaton BR loadcenters, which require 1-inch wide breakers. It is strictly designed for Eaton CH Plug-On Neutral panels.
Does the CHFP120GF feature a trip indicator?
Yes. As part of the CHF family, this breaker includes a mechanical trip flag. When a fault occurs, the flag becomes visible, allowing you to easily differentiate between a tripped breaker and one that has been manually turned off.
