It’s designed for 120\/240V circuits where both legs need to trip together, and it also adds ground fault protection, which is often required on specific branch circuits depending on code or application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn practice, this breaker is usually found in residential or light commercial CH panels where the original setup uses bolt-on style breakers. The idea is pretty simple—replace what’s already there without changing the panel design or reworking the system. It keeps everything consistent inside the loadcenter, which is especially important when you’re maintaining older or already-installed CH equipment. Inside, the CHB240GF uses a thermal magnetic trip system that responds to both overloads and short circuits. It also includes ground fault protection, which monitors for leakage current and helps disconnect the circuit when needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a two-pole 40 amp design, it’s commonly used on 240V branch circuits where both conductors need to disconnect at the same time. The #8–4 AWG wire range lines up with standard heavier branch circuit wiring for this size breaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the end of the day, the CHB240GF is a straightforward replacement breaker for Eaton CH bolt-on panels, built for keeping existing systems working the way they were originally installed while meeting ground fault protection requirements where needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features and Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40 Amp, 2-pole ground fault breaker for Eaton CH Loadcenters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt-on mounting style for secure panel connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in ground fault protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for 120\/240V branch circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThermal magnetic protection for overloads and short circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 kAIC interrupt rating for standard fault levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-pole switching for shared disconnect\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with #8–4 AWG conductors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsed in residential and light commercial CH systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for existing CH bolt-on breakers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e CHB240GF\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e CHBGF\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmperes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40A\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120\/240VAC\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterrupting Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 kAIC\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bolt-on\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.50\"W x 4.63\"L x 2.50\"D\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.63 in\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 in\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 in\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApprox.
