EATON CH AFCI Series Circuit Breakers

Eaton CH AFCI circuit breakers detect the characteristic patterns of arcing fault current and trip or shut off the electrical circuit to prevent potential fire hazards. These circuit breakers are available in single-pole and two-pole configurations.

Working Mechanism

  • Eaton AFCI circuit breakers utilise sensors to monitor the electrical current flowing through the circuit.
  • When the circuit breaker detects an arc fault, it interrupts the flow of electricity to prevent fire risks.

Features

  • Eaton CH AFCI circuit breakers have an LED to indicate one of the seven trip codes to simplify circuit diagnostics.
  • These circuit breakers provide branch overvoltage protection for sensitive electronics and have an interrupt rating of 10kIAC.
  • Their thermal-magnetic trip curve avoids nuisance tripping on mild overloads but reacts almost instantaneously to severe short-circuit conditions.
  • Selected models have trip flags to differentiate between a 'trip' and the 'breaker being turned off' conditions.

Compatible Accessories

  • Eaton CH Loadcenters: These units are suitable to contain these CH circuit breakers and come in options for surface-mounted, flush-mounted and combination settings.

Standards and Approvals

  • UL
  • NEC

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an AFCI and GFCI?

GFCI protects people from electric shocks due to a ground fault, whereas the AFCI protects the branch circuit wiring from dangerous arcing faults.

What is an arc fault?

Arc fault is an unintended arc created by current flowing through an unplanned path. Arcing creates high-intensity heating that results in burning particles that may easily ignite surrounding material, such as wood framing or insulation.

Can AFCI circuit breakers be reset?

Yes, AFCI circuit breakers can be reset after they trip or shut off due to an arc fault.

Can AFCI circuit breakers be used with surge protectors?

Yes, AFCI circuit breakers can be used with surge protectors.
