CH2030 - 30Amp Circuit Breaker

CH2030 - 30Amp Circuit Breaker

The CH2030 is a 30 Amp, 2-pole Type CH circuit breaker used in compatible electrical distribution equipment that requires a bolt-on breaker with these specific ratings. It features a thermal magnetic trip mechanism, a non-interchangeable trip unit, and a bolt-on mounting design for installations where those characteristics are already part of the system.

If you're replacing an existing breaker, matching the type, amp rating, pole configuration, and interrupting capacity is typically the first step. The CH2030 is rated 65kA at 240VAC and 14kA at 480VAC and is designed for use in 50/60Hz systems with ambient temperatures up to 40°C. It is also HACR rated, making it suitable for use in compatible heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.

Many electrical systems stay in service for decades, and finding the right replacement often comes down to matching the breaker that's already installed. The CH2030 is built for those situations. It provides the form, fit, and ratings required for compatible Type CH equipment without changing the original configuration of the electrical system. Built to last, it remains a practical choice for ongoing maintenance, repairs, and replacement projects.
