Product FAQs
6 answersWhat electrical panels are compatible with the CHF225 circuit breaker?
The Eaton CHF225 is designed exclusively for use in Eaton and Cutler-Hammer Type CH load centers. It requires two 3/4-inch spaces and features a plug-on connection. It is not compatible with BR series or other manufacturer panels.
What is the difference between the Eaton CH225 and CHF225 breakers?
The CHF225 is the direct, upgraded replacement for the legacy CH225 circuit breaker. The primary difference is that the CHF series includes a mechanical trip flag that provides a clear visual indication when the breaker has tripped. Both models are fully interchangeable in Type CH load centers.
How does the trip flag on the CHF225 work?
When the breaker trips due to an overcurrent or short circuit, a mechanical flag appears on the face of the breaker to visually confirm its tripped status. The CHF225 also features a Trip to OFF design, allowing for a simple one-step reset by pushing the handle directly back to the ON position.
What wire sizes are accepted by the CHF225 box lugs?
The box lug terminals on the CHF225 accept either one 14 to 8 AWG copper or aluminum wire, or two 14 to 10 AWG copper or aluminum wires.
Can the CHF225 be used for 120V and 240V applications?
Yes, this two-pole breaker is rated for 120/240VAC applications. It features an internal common trip mechanism that ensures both poles open simultaneously during a fault.
Does the CHF225 provide AFCI or GFCI protection?
No, the CHF225 is a standard thermal-magnetic circuit breaker providing overload and short-circuit protection. It does not include Arc Fault (AFCI) or Ground Fault (GFCI) protection.

I needed these breakers for an install - first time using the company. They said they had them in stock. Took over a week to fulfil the order and it was 11 or 12 days before I had my hands on them. Tough on my business. Then when I went return them they hit me with so many fees that I was gonna net under $30 on a $104 order. It's too bad this was my first experience with them. I'll be sure to tell my electricians and project managers to never use this company. Short sighted. They won the battle but lost the war with a potential great long term client.
