Residential electrical systems require dependable overcurrent defense, which this 15A single-pole breaker delivers. It mounts into Square D Homeline load centers using a simple plug-on mechanism, making it ideal for standard household lighting and outlet circuits. The unit carries a Switching Duty (SWD) rating, allowing it to safely control fluorescent lighting loads on a regular basis. With a 10kAIC rating at 120/240V, it meets standard residential requirements and accepts 14-8 AWG wiring.
Can I install the HOM115 breaker in a Square D QO or Siemens load center?
No. The HOM115 is exclusively designed for Square D Homeline load centers. It utilizes a 1-inch format and a specific bus bar mounting style that will not seat properly in QO panels, Siemens panels, or other incompatible brands. Mixing breaker brands or series violates UL listings.
What is the recommended terminal torque specification for the HOM115 circuit breaker?
The recommended tightening torque for the HOM115 screw clamp terminal is 35 lb-in (4.0 N-m). Always verify the torque specification printed directly on the side of the breaker before finalizing installation.
Does the HOM115 terminal accept more than one wire?
Yes, the clamp terminal on the HOM115 is rated to accept dual copper wires. You can insert up to two 14-10 AWG copper conductors into the single terminal lug. If using aluminum wire, it only accepts a single 14-8 AWG conductor.
What is the tandem equivalent for this 15-amp Homeline breaker?
The tandem version of this breaker is catalog number HOMT1515. It provides two independent 15-amp circuits while occupying the exact same single 1-inch panel space as the standard HOM115.
Are there AFCI and GFCI versions of the HOM115 available?
Yes. For branch circuits requiring specialized protection, you can use the HOM115CAFI (Combination Arc Fault), HOM115GFI (Ground Fault), or the HOM115DF (Dual Function AFCI and GFCI). Newer panels may require the plug-on neutral versions, such as the HOM115PCAFI.
Is the HOM115 breaker SWD and HACR rated?
Yes. The HOM115 is Switching Duty (SWD) rated, meaning it can safely be used to switch 120-volt fluorescent lighting loads on and off on a regular basis. It is also HACR rated for use with compatible heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
Does the standard HOM115 require a neutral connection?
No. As a standard thermal-magnetic breaker, the HOM115 does not require a neutral wire connection to operate. Neutral pigtails or plug-on neutral clips are only found on the AFCI, GFCI, and dual-function Homeline variants.

Good product, great price!
I was having a hard time finding this partifcular breaker at my local big box building materials retailer and found this and another odd size breaker. Much better price here and shipped in a couple of days. Could not be happier. I will think of this company for future projects.

Deceiving
I needed a specific breaker that has a large opening for the wiring. The photos were deceiving and showed what looked like the large opening I need for where the wires go. However, I received the breaker and the opening is the exact same and 2 other breakers I purchased from Home Depot and from Menards. Now I spent another $35 on a breaker I can’t even use. Shopping is outrageously priced, and I tried to return and I literally will have to PAY THEM to return this item. I’m very upset.

Needed discontinued breakers
Breakers are breakers. Either they work, or they don't , and my purchase was fine. I purchased these because they are discontinued, but were available from SuperBreakers at a reasonable price. So I'm satisfied, but satisfaction criteria were limited to: (1) are the available; (2) are they new and do they work; and (3) are they not overpriced. All criteria were met.
