Circuit breakers

CH circuit breakers

Eaton's Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCIs) use advanced electronic technology to reduce fire hazards in electrical circuits, including connected cords. They meet the requirements of Standard for Safety, CEC 2015 for devices that reduce the effects of persistent arcing faults that may pose a risk of fire under certain conditions. Choose plug-on branch feeder or combination type breakers.

What is an AFCI?

How to reset and identify trip codes.

Arc fault technology

Eaton's arc fault technology has been proven through arc fault breakers and has gone through several iterations to reduce unwanted nuisance tripping due to interference from devices or appliances. Arc fault circuit interrupters have been established as a stable technology which can be used in conjunction with various loads through the home in both AFCI breakers and AFCI receptacles.

    • Meets areas requiring AFCI protection under the 200 and all subsequent edition of the NEC.
  • GFCI
    • One pole breakers 15–30A
    • 5mA protection per CSA Charge
  • Plug-on neutral 
    • Time savings up to 25% per AFCI and GFCI installation
    • Improved wireway access
    • Easier troubleshooting due to less wiring
    • Eliminates unwanted tripping due to loose pigtail connections
  • Limited lifetime warranty on CH products and 10-year warranty on CH electronic (AFCI/GFCI) breakers

Reducing the risk of home fires

Arcing faults are responsible for starting many fires and causing millions in property damage each year in Canada. Eaton's arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) can detect these arcs behind the walls and quickly turn off power before an arc causes a potential fire.

Reducing the risk of shock

Eaton's ground fault current interrupters (GFCIs) provide superior safety where electricity may come into contact with water. GFCIs are required in any application near water such as kitchen countertops, bathrooms, swimming pools, hot tubs and outdoor receptacles. They immediately break the circuit when electrical current leakage is detected, reducing the risk of shock and electrocution.

Dual purpose circuit protection

Eaton’s arc fault/ground ground (AF/GF) circuit interrupters were developed in response to the 2015 Canadian Electrical Code that now requires AFCI protection in kitchens and laundry areas as well as the historical requirement of ground fault protection. The AF/GF circuit interrupter provides quick installation and a single location to easily access and identify tripped circuits.
