CHB215 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

CHB215 - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

The CHB215 circuit breaker is a 2-pole, 15-amp, bolt-on breaker designed for use in electrical distribution systems requiring dependable branch circuit protection at 120/240VAC. Built on the CHB frame platform, this breaker is engineered for proper form, fit, and function in compatible panelboards and load centers. With a 10kA A.I.C. rating, it is suited for applications where reliable interruption capacity is required to help protect conductors and equipment from damage caused by overcurrents and short circuits. Designed for long-term service in commercial and industrial environments, the CHB215 is built to last and provides consistent protection in legacy systems where CHB-style breakers are specified. Whether you’re maintaining an existing installation or replacing a faulty unit, this 15A, 2-pole CHB breaker delivers the ratings and configuration needed for safe, code-aligned operation in compatible assemblies.
