The Eaton GFCB120 delivers reliable ground-fault circuit interruption for residential and commercial applications. Designed to protect personnel from electrical shock, this 1-pole 20A breaker includes a pigtail neutral for standard wiring configurations. It mounts into 1-inch spaces within Eaton BR, Bryant, Challenger, and Westinghouse panelboards. Rated at 10 kAIC, it provides essential thermal-magnetic overload defense alongside its 5mA Class A GFCI capabilities for wet locations.
Which load centers are compatible with the GFCB120 breaker?
This 1-inch plug-on breaker is compatible with Eaton BR, legacy Bryant, Challenger, and Westinghouse load centers. It will not fit in Eaton Type CH panels or panels from other manufacturers like Square D or Siemens.
How is the neutral wired for the GFCB120?
This breaker uses a pigtail neutral connection. The coiled white pigtail wire must be terminated at the panel's neutral bus bar, while the load neutral wire connects directly to the designated neutral terminal on the breaker.
What is the ground fault trip threshold for the GFCB120?
The GFCB120 is a Class A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). It is calibrated to trip when it detects a ground fault leakage current of 5mA.
Does this breaker provide combination arc fault (AFCI) protection?
No. The GFCB120 provides standard thermal-magnetic overcurrent protection and ground fault (GFCI) protection. It does not offer arc fault detection. If AFCI or dual-function protection is required by code, a different breaker type is needed.
What wire sizes are accepted by the GFCB120 terminals?
The box lug terminals on this breaker accept copper or aluminum conductors ranging from 14 AWG to 4 AWG.
Are the GFCB120 and BR120GF the same breaker?
Yes. Eaton uses both the GFCB120 and BR120GF catalog numbers for their 20A, 1-pole BR-series GFCI breakers. They share the same physical dimensions, trip characteristics, and panel compatibility.
Does the GFCB120 carry SWD and HACR ratings?
Yes. Like most 15A and 20A single-pole breakers in the Eaton BR family, the GFCB120 is Switching Duty (SWD) rated for controlling fluorescent lighting loads and is marked for use with Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration (HACR) equipment.
