Product FAQs
6 answersIs the CHFAFGF120 compatible with Eaton BR load centers?
No, this breaker is exclusively designed for Eaton Type CH load centers. It will not fit in Type BR panels or load centers from other manufacturers.
Does the CHFAFGF120 require a plug-on neutral panel for installation?
No, this breaker features a standard pigtail neutral wire. It can be installed in any standard Eaton Type CH load center, including older panels that do not have a plug-on neutral bar.
How does the CHFAFGF120 indicate the cause of a trip?
The breaker is equipped with a diagnostic LED that flashes one of seven specific codes to help identify the exact cause of the fault. It also features a mechanical trip flag that visually confirms the breaker has tripped rather than just being manually turned off.
What is the direct replacement for the legacy CHFAFGF120?
The CHFAFGF120 has been replaced by the newer Eaton CHFN120DF. Both models are 20A, 1-pole dual-function AFCI/GFCI breakers with a pigtail neutral designed for Type CH load centers.
What wire gauges are accepted by the terminals on the CHFAFGF120?
The box lugs can accommodate a single 14 to 8 AWG copper or aluminum wire, or two 14 to 10 AWG copper or aluminum wires.

Yes, it is a dual-function breaker that provides both Combination Type AFCI and 5mA GFCI protection, meeting NEC requirements for areas that require both types of safeguarding.

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.
