Description
Engineered for wet or damp location compliance, this 30A two-pole interrupter detects ground faults as low as 5mA. It integrates into classic Cutler-Hammer and modern Eaton CH series load centers using a standard plug-on mounting interface and pigtail neutral. Often utilized for pool pumps or outdoor equipment, this thermal-magnetic device is the predecessor to the newer CH230GFT self-testing model but offers identical physical dimensions and fitment.Specifications

Product FAQs
6 answersWhat is the trip threshold for the ground-fault protection on the CH230GFI?
This Class A GFCI breaker is designed to trip when it detects a ground fault leakage current of 5mA, protecting personnel from electrical shock.
How much panel space is required to install the CH230GFI?
As a 2-pole Type CH circuit breaker, it requires two 3/4-inch spaces, taking up a total of 1.5 inches of physical width on the load center bus.
Can I install this breaker in an Eaton BR or Square D load center?
No. The CH230GFI features a proprietary plug-on clip design that is exclusively compatible with Eaton and classic Cutler-Hammer Type CH load centers. It will not fit BR-style or other manufacturer panels.
How is the neutral connection handled on this breaker?
This model relies on a traditional pigtail neutral. The attached coiled white wire must be routed and secured directly to the neutral bus bar in the panel for the internal ground-fault protection circuitry to function correctly.
What is the difference between the CH230GFI and the newer CH230GFT?
The CH230GFT is the newer self-testing version of this breaker, designed to meet updated UL standards by automatically running internal diagnostic tests. The older CH230GFI requires the user to manually press the test button to verify functionality, though both offer identical physical dimensions, fitment, and 5mA protection.
What types of applications typically require a 30A 240V GFCI breaker?
A 30-amp, 2-pole GFCI is commonly used to protect 240V circuits in damp or wet locations, such as swimming pool pumps, hot tubs, spa panels, and outdoor equipment, strictly following NEC safety requirements.

- CSChristine S.Verified BuyerReviewingEaton / Cutler-Hammer CH2100-LONG - 100A 2 Pole Molded Case Circuit BreakerI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars5/18/26Got a great refurbished breaker - saved a $6500 Service Replacement
When our main breaker frizzed out, the option we were presented with was replacing the entire panel and service due to the type and part - no longer produced for replacement parts. It would be a $6500 replacement.
We'll likely have to do it at some point but, for now, the replacement breaker we were able to source from Superbreakers (with a $25 warranty) was $5900 less expensive. installation ran a few hundred dollars and the tech said the part looked to be in excellent condition and was prepped for install as he would have hoped.
Very thankful for SuperBreakers!
