GFTCB240 - 40 Amp GFCI (5mA) Circuit Breaker Description
GFTCB240 - 40 Amp GFCI (5mA) Circuit Breaker
The Eaton GFTCB240 is a 40 Amp, 2-pole GFCI circuit breaker that combines branch circuit protection and ground fault protection into one device. It provides protection against overloads and short circuits while also offering 5mA ground fault protection for personnel safety. With a 10kAIC interrupt rating, common trip operation, and a built-in GFI indicator, the GFTCB240 is designed for electrical applications where both circuit protection and GFCI protection are needed in the same breaker.
When you're replacing a GFCI breaker, matching the existing electrical setup is an important step. The GFTCB240 is a two-pole breaker rated for 120/240V applications, making it suitable for circuits that use both legs of a 120/240V supply.
