Eaton GFCB220 circuit breaker is a 20A ground-fault current interrupter (GFCIs) designed for applications where electrical outlets may come into contact with water. The ground fault function decreases the shock & electrocution risks in circuits of commercial bathrooms, kitchens, swimming pools and outdoor receptacles.
Working Mechanism:
- Eaton GFCB220 circuit breaker normally permits the current to pass through. The current-carrying contacts touch each other in this state.
- When it detects ground faults (GF), the contacts move away from each other, thereby tripping the circuit.
- Operators can switch the circuit back On by resetting it after troubleshooting the issue.
Features:
- Eaton GFCB220 circuit breaker is a ground fault (GF) breaker with a two-pole, BR frame design for accommodating 14 to 4 AWG wires.
- It comes with a self-diagnostic feature for easy troubleshooting / maintenance.
- This breaker's plug-in mounting style allows easy installation on panels or switchboards.
