Product FAQs
7 answersHow does the 10 kAIC interrupting rating affect selection?
The interrupting rating is 10 kAIC at 120 V, meaning the breaker can interrupt fault current up to that rating at that voltage. Available fault current at the installation point must not exceed the interrupting rating.
What does AFCI protection do?
AFCI protection detects hazardous arcing conditions and trips to help reduce electrical fire risk. Choose this protection when the circuit requires arc-fault protection.
Can I adjust the thermal or magnetic trip settings?
The thermal and magnetic trip settings are fixed. Thermal operation provides long-time overload protection, while magnetic operation provides instantaneous response to short-circuit current, so selection relies on the breaker's fixed characteristics rather than field adjustment.
What conductor sizes can the lug terminals accept?
The terminal wire range is 14-4 AWG. Choose a conductor within that range and verify that its ampacity is appropriate for the circuit; terminal acceptance alone does not determine conductor sizing.
How is this breaker mounted, and how do the conductors connect?
The breaker uses plug-on mounting, and conductors connect through lug terminals. Plan installation around the plug-on mounting method and secure the conductors in the lugs.
How should I use the Eaton BRC115CAFA amperage rating when selecting circuit protection?
The Eaton BRC115CAFA has an amperage rating of 15A. Choose circuit protection by checking both the load requirements and conductor ampacity against that rating.
What electrical ratings should I check when selecting the Eaton BRC115CAFA?
The Eaton BRC115CAFA is rated 120VAC and has a single-phase, single-pole arrangement. Check circuit voltage, phase and required pole count when selecting circuit protection.
