CHB280 - 80Amp Circuit Breaker Description
CHB280 - 80 Amp Circuit Breaker
The CHB280 circuit breaker is a 2-pole, 80-amp bolt-on style breaker designed for dependable overcurrent protection in 120/240VAC electrical distribution systems. Built on the CHB frame platform, this breaker is engineered for proper form, fit, and function in compatible panelboards and load centers that require a CHB series device. With a 10k A.I.C. interrupting rating, the CHB280 is suited for protecting branch circuits and feeder applications in residential, commercial, and light industrial environments. Its bolt-on mounting design provides a secure mechanical and electrical connection to the panel bus, helping maintain stable contact and consistent performance over time. Like all CHB frame breakers, it is built to last and intended to meet the practical demands of maintaining and servicing existing electrical systems.
Key Features and Benefits
- 80 Amp Continuous Rating – Designed to handle circuits requiring up to 80 amps of protection at 120/240VAC.
- 2-Pole Configuration – Provides protection for two hot legs in split-phase systems, common in residential and commercial applications.
- 10kA Interrupting Capacity – Rated for 10,000 amps A.I.C. at 120/240VAC, supporting safe interruption of fault currents within its rating.
- Bolt-On Style Mounting – Secures directly to the panelboard bus for a firm, stable connection and reduced movement.
- CHB Frame Type – Manufactured for proper compatibility with panelboards designed for CHB series breakers.
- Built to Last – Constructed with durable internal components and a solid housing to support long-term service in legacy systems.
