CH115 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

CH115 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

The CH115 is a 15 amp, 1-pole Type CH circuit breaker used to protect 120-volt branch circuits from overloads and short circuits. It's a common choice for lighting circuits, receptacles, and other everyday electrical loads found in residential and light commercial systems.

Built for use in compatible Type CH load centers and panelboards, the CH115 features a plug-on design that allows it to seat securely in the panel. Its compact footprint takes up just one pole space, making it a practical replacement breaker when panel space is limited.

With a 10kA interrupting rating at 120VAC, the CH115 is designed to trip when fault conditions occur, helping prevent damage to conductors and connected equipment. Whether you're replacing an existing breaker during routine maintenance or completing an electrical upgrade, this breaker provides the protection expected from a standard branch circuit device.

One reason electricians continue to use the CH115 is its simplicity. It's a straightforward 15 amp Type CH breaker that does exactly what it's supposed to do—protect the circuit and keep the electrical system operating safely.
