CAH2200 - 200Amp Circuit Breaker

CAH2200 - 200 Amp Circuit Breaker

The CAH2200 circuit breaker is a 2-pole, 200 amp molded case circuit breaker designed to provide dependable overcurrent protection in 120/240VAC electrical distribution systems. Built on a CAH frame and rated for 40°C operation, this breaker is engineered for consistent performance in commercial and industrial panelboards where reliable circuit protection is essential. With a 22kA A.I.C. interrupting capacity at 120/240VAC, the CAH2200 helps protect conductors and connected equipment from damage caused by overloads and short circuits. Its non-interchangeable trip unit ensures calibrated, factory-set protection, while included line- and load-side lugs simplify installation in compatible systems. Designed to deliver proper form, fit, and function, the CAH2200 serves as a direct replacement option for existing setups requiring these exact specifications.
