CH115AF - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

CH115AF - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

The CH115AF circuit breaker is a 15-amp, single-pole, plug-on style breaker designed for use in compatible CH load centers requiring Branch/Feeder Type Arc Fault Circuit Interruption (AFCI) protection. Rated for 10k A.I.C. at 120VAC, this breaker helps protect electrical circuits from both overcurrents and arc faults that can result from damaged wiring, loose connections, or deteriorated insulation. Built for proper form, fit, and function within CH series panels, the CH115AF provides dependable circuit protection for residential and light commercial branch circuits. Its compact, plug-on configuration allows for secure installation while maintaining compliance with applicable electrical codes requiring AFCI protection in designated living areas. Manufactured to meet industry standards for safety and performance, the CH115AF is engineered for long-term durability in everyday operating conditions. It is commonly used as a direct replacement in existing CH load centers where a 15A AFCI breaker is specified.
