BR2020 - Duplex 20/20 Circuit Breaker

BR2020 - Duplex 20/20 Circuit Breaker

The Eaton BR2020 is a two-pole, 20 Amp circuit breaker designed for use in compatible Eaton Type BR loadcenters. With two 20 Amp poles and a common-trip design, both circuits disconnect together when a fault occurs. This configuration is commonly used where simultaneous disconnection is required and panel compatibility is important.

Its compact plug-on design fits into Eaton BR panels without changing the existing panel layout, making it a common replacement breaker in residential and light commercial electrical systems.

You'll find the BR2020 in homes, apartments, workshops, offices, and small commercial buildings. Whether replacing an existing breaker or maintaining a Type BR panel, matching the breaker type, pole configuration, and amperage rating helps ensure proper fit and operation.

Like many Eaton BR breakers that remain in service for years, the BR2020 is built to last when installed and used within its intended ratings.
