Product FAQs
5 answers
Which competitor load centers are approved for use with the CL115CAF classified breaker?
This Eaton CL series breaker is UL classified for use in General Electric Type THQ, Siemens Type QP, Murray Type MP, and Square D Homeline load centers. It serves as a direct, code-compliant replacement for 1-inch plug-on breakers in these specific panels.
How is the neutral connection handled during installation of the CL115CAF?
This breaker features a pigtail neutral. The coiled white pigtail wire must be routed and securely terminated at the neutral bus bar in the load center to power the internal arc fault detection circuitry.
Does the CL115CAF meet National Electrical Code requirements for combination arc fault protection?
Yes, as a Combination Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (CAFCI), it detects both parallel and series arcing faults. This satisfies NEC mandates for AFCI protection in residential living areas like bedrooms, living rooms, and dining rooms.
Can the CL115CAF be used to replace a standard non-AFCI breaker in an older panel?
Yes, provided the panel is one of the UL classified compatible models (GE THQ, Siemens QP, Murray MP, or Square D Homeline). Upgrading to this CAFCI breaker adds arc fault protection to an existing branch circuit without requiring a panel swap.
What are the wiring capacities for the box lugs on this 15A breaker?
The terminals accept 14 AWG to 4 AWG aluminum or copper wire. While 14 AWG copper is standard for a 15A circuit, the oversized lug capacity allows for larger conductors when compensating for voltage drop on long wire runs.
