The GHCGFEP1030 is a 1-pole, 30A molded case circuit breaker from Eaton's Series C G-Frame family. Engineered for commercial and industrial applications, it delivers reliable thermal-magnetic protection alongside 30mA ground fault equipment protection (GFEP). This unit-mount breaker installs into OEM panels, Eaton Series C enclosures, or DIN rails using an adapter. Rated for 14 kAIC at 277VAC, it features fixed trip settings and is HACR rated for HVAC equipment safety.
What is the ground fault trip sensitivity for the GHCGFEP1030?
This GFEP breaker has a 30 mA ground fault trip sensitivity. It is designed for equipment protection, such as heat trace cables, rather than personnel protection.
Can the GHCGFEP1030 be mounted on a standard DIN rail?
Yes, this breaker can be mounted to a standard 35mm DIN rail using an Eaton adapter kit. For single pole GHC breakers, use adapter part number 1225C79G01.
Are Eaton and Cutler-Hammer GHC breakers interchangeable?
Yes. Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer, and the GHC series is manufactured under both brand names. A Cutler-Hammer GHCGFEP1030 is the exact same product as the Eaton version.
How does GFEP differ from standard GFCI protection?
Ground Fault Equipment Protection (GFEP) breakers trip at a 30 mA threshold to protect machinery and equipment from damaging line to ground faults. Standard GFCI breakers trip at 5 mA to protect personnel from electric shock.
How is the neutral wire connected for this ground fault breaker?
This breaker includes a pigtail neutral wire that must be securely connected to the neutral bar in your panel or enclosure for the ground fault sensing to function correctly.
What types of panels or enclosures are compatible with this breaker?
It is designed for use in Eaton Series C enclosures and OEM control panels. It can also be installed in custom control panels using a base mounting plate or a DIN rail adapter.
