BR115AF - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

BR115AF - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

The BR115AF circuit breaker is a 15-amp, single-pole plug-on breaker designed for 120VAC branch circuits requiring Branch/Feeder Type Arc Fault Circuit Interruption (AFCI) protection. Built on the BRAF frame platform, this HACR-rated breaker is engineered for proper form, fit, and function in compatible load centers. It provides essential protection against arc faults caused by damaged wiring, loose connections, or insulation breakdown—helping reduce the risk of electrical fires in residential and light commercial systems. With a 10kA interrupting capacity at 120VAC, the BR115AF is suited for standard applications where dependable overcurrent and arc fault protection are required. Designed to last and manufactured to meet applicable industry standards, it serves as a reliable replacement option in legacy and existing panel configurations that specify this model.
