Product FAQs

6 answers
Which load centers are compatible with the CHN245GF breaker?

This breaker installs into Eaton CH series load centers. It is compatible with both standard CH panels and Type CH plug-on neutral load centers.

Can the CHN245GF replace the older CH245GF model?

Yes. The CHN245GF is the direct replacement for the legacy CH245GF. It maintains the same physical footprint and pigtail neutral connection while adding updated self-test functionality.

Does this breaker require a plug-on neutral panel?

No. Although it is compatible with plug-on neutral load centers, the CHN245GF features a pigtail neutral wire. This wire must be manually routed and terminated at the panel neutral bus bar.

What type of ground fault protection does the CHN245GF offer?

It delivers 5mA Class A ground fault protection. This level of protection is engineered for personnel safety and meets NEC requirements for circuits in damp or wet environments.

Will this breaker fit in an Eaton BR series load center?

No. The CHN245GF is part of the CH family, which uses a 3/4-inch per pole design. It is not interchangeable with Eaton BR series panels, which require 1-inch format breakers.

Does the CHN245GF include self-test capabilities?

Yes. It features built-in self-test functionality that periodically verifies the integrity of the ground fault protection circuitry to ensure ongoing personnel safety.
