GFTCB225 - 25 Amp GFCI (5mA) Circuit Breaker

GFTCB225 - 25 Amp GFCI (5mA) Circuit Breaker

The GFTCB225 is one of those breakers you use when safety really matters—especially in areas where people are likely to come into contact with electricity. It’s a 2-pole, 25 amp GFCI circuit breaker with 5mA sensitivity, which means it’s designed to trip quickly if it detects even a small ground fault. That’s exactly what you want in places like kitchens, bathrooms, or anywhere moisture is involved. It’s rated for 125/240VAC and has a 22kA interrupting capacity, so it’s not just sensitive—it can also handle serious fault conditions without issue. Size-wise, it’s compact enough to fit into compatible panels without crowding things, which makes installation a bit easier, especially when space is tight. There’s nothing complicated about it. It installs as it should, performs as it should, and gives you that extra layer of protection without needing to think twice about it.
