CH240GF - 40Amp Circuit Breaker Description
CH240GF - 40 Amp Circuit Breaker
The CH240GF circuit breaker is a 40 amp, 2 pole breaker designed for use in compatible CH series load centers and panelboards. Rated at 120/240VAC with a 10kA interrupting capacity, it provides reliable overcurrent protection for branch circuits serving larger residential or light commercial loads. Built on the CHGF frame, this plug-on style breaker is intended for proper form, fit, and function in existing electrical systems where a matching CH-type breaker is required. With its compact design (approximately 4.63 inches tall) and straightforward plug-on installation, the CH240GF is commonly used when maintaining or servicing panels that require a 2-pole, 40A breaker. It is built with durable internal components designed for long service life under normal operating conditions. Matching the correct amperage, voltage rating, and frame type helps ensure safe and consistent performance within the panel.
