Product FAQs
4 answersWhat load centers are compatible with the Eaton CL250?
The CL250 is a UL-classified 1-inch replacement circuit breaker. It is approved for direct replacement in Square D Homeline, GE Type THQ, Siemens/ITE Type QP, Murray Type MP, Crouse-Hinds Type MP, and Thomas & Betts Type TB load centers.
Is the Eaton CL250 code-compliant for use in competitor panels?
Yes. The CL250 is rigorously tested and UL classified (UL 489) specifically as a direct replacement for approved non-Eaton panels. This ensures it meets National Electrical Code (NEC) safety standards when installed in compatible 1-inch load centers.
How much panel space does the CL250 require for installation?
The CL250 is a 1-inch format, 2-pole circuit breaker. It requires two adjacent 1-inch spaces, taking up a total of 2 inches on the panel bus.
Does the CL250 feature an independent or common trip mechanism?
The CL250 utilizes a common trip mechanism. If an overcurrent or short circuit occurs on either leg, the internal tie ensures both poles trip simultaneously to safely disconnect the 240V circuit.
