Product FAQs
5 answers
Does the BRN250GF replace older Eaton or Cutler-Hammer 50A GFCI breakers?
Yes, the BRN250GF is the direct drop-in replacement for the discontinued GFTCB250 and GFCB250 catalog numbers.
What level of ground fault protection does the BRN250GF provide?
This breaker provides Class A ground fault protection with a 5mA trip sensitivity, which is required by the NEC for personnel protection in wet or damp locations such as pools, spas, and outdoor circuits.
Does this breaker include an automatic self-test function?
Yes, the BRN250GF features a self-test function that automatically initiates within 5 seconds of power availability. If the self-test fails, the breaker will disable itself to prevent unprotected power delivery.
How is the pigtail neutral wired during installation?
The coiled white pigtail wire attached to the breaker must be routed and terminated directly to the neutral bus bar in the load center to ensure proper GFCI operation.
Can the BRN250GF be installed in any Eaton panel?
No, this breaker is specifically designed for Eaton and Cutler-Hammer Type BR load centers. It is not compatible with Type CH panels.
