Circuit Breakers
Eatons Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters (AFCIs) use advanced electronic technology to reduce fire hazards in electrical circuits, including connected cords. They meet the requirements of the UL Standard for Safety, UL 1699 for devices that reduce the effects of persistent arcing faults that may pose a risk of fire under certain conditions. Arcing creates high intensity heating at the point of the arc resulting in burning particles that may over time ignite surrounding material, such as wood framing or insulation. The CHFCAF120 is a 20 Amp combination type breaker that includes all the protection of the branch feeder, plus it directly detects persistent low current arcing faults down to 5 Amp to efficiently protect against fire hazards in the cords connected to outlets.
- Combination type includes all the protection of the branch feeder, plus it directly detects persistent low current arcing faults down to 5 Amp to efficiently protect against fire hazards in the cords connected to outlets
- Branch feeder mitigates parallel arcing faults, which produce the most energy of all arcing faults, in the complete circuit including connected cords for enhanced safety
- For use in type CH load centers
- Amp: 20 Amp
Murray offers a wide array of thermal-magnetic circuit breakers that are the key element for overload and short-circuit protection of your home's electrical system. To provide additional protection Murray offers circuit breakers to protect against severe electrical shock or electrocution, mitigate the risk of electrical fires and protect against damaging surges and voltage spikes. Circuit breakers are intended for switching and protection of your home's wiring from high temperatures caused by excess current higher than the rating of the wire. While thermal-magnetic circuit breakers are the key element for overload and short-circuit protection of your electrical system, there are potentially dangerous conditions that do not involve over current.
