Product FAQs
5 answersWhat panelboards are compatible with the CHB260?
The CHB260 is a bolt-on circuit breaker designed specifically for use in Cutler-Hammer Type PB and Type PH panelboards. It is not compatible with standard plug-on load centers.
Can I use a BAB or CH series breaker in place of the CHB260?
No. While they are all manufactured by Eaton, CH breakers are plug-on, and BAB breakers are designed for different commercial panelboards. You must use a CHB series breaker to properly fit Type PB and PH panelboards.
Are Eaton and Cutler-Hammer CHB260 breakers the exact same part?
Yes. Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer, so CHB260 breakers labeled under the Eaton, Cutler-Hammer, or legacy Westinghouse brands are functionally identical and interchangeable.
How does the CHB260 connect to the panel bus?
The CHB260 features a bolt-on mounting style. It physically bolts directly to the bus bar of compatible PB and PH panelboards, providing a secure and vibration-resistant connection for commercial applications.
What type of trip mechanism does the CHB260 use?
This breaker utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. The thermal element provides long-time protection against overloads, while the magnetic element offers instantaneous protection against short circuits.
