Engineered for robust performance, the Eaton CH320 provides 20A of thermal-magnetic protection across three poles. It is designed to handle demanding commercial and industrial electrical loads. This unit installs into standard Eaton CH load centers using a convenient plug-on mounting style. Its box lug terminals are compatible with 14-6 AWG wire sizes. Rated for 10 kAIC at 240VAC, the breaker is fully HACR rated, making it an excellent choice for protecting dedicated HVAC circuits.
What panels are compatible with the CH320 circuit breaker?
This plug-on miniature breaker is exclusively designed for use in Eaton or legacy Cutler-Hammer Type CH load centers. It will not fit in Type BR or other manufacturer panels.
How much panel space does this three pole breaker require?
The Type CH series features a 3/4-inch per pole footprint. This three pole breaker requires three consecutive 3/4-inch spaces, occupying a total width of 2.25 inches on your load center bus.
Is this breaker rated for heating and cooling equipment?
Yes, this model is fully HACR rated. It is tested and approved to handle the inrush currents and continuous loads of heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
What is the trip indication style for standard Type CH breakers?
Standard Eaton Type CH circuit breakers trip fully to the OFF position rather than stopping in a middle position. This design eliminates the need to push the handle firmly to the OFF position before resetting.
Does this breaker require a separate mounting kit?
No, the CH320 is a standard plug-on circuit breaker. It snaps directly onto the bus bar of a Type CH load center without the need for bolted connections or additional mounting accessories.
How does the trip mechanism handle a fault on a single phase?
This model features an internal common trip mechanism. If an overload or short circuit occurs on any one of the three poles, the internal linkage ensures all three poles open simultaneously to prevent single-phasing of three phase equipment.
Is this a direct replacement for legacy Cutler-Hammer breakers?
Yes. Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer and maintained the exact physical and electrical specifications for the Type CH series. An Eaton CH320 is a direct, UL 489 listed replacement for an older Cutler-Hammer CH320.

Got 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.
