The EATON BAB1020S is a reliable 1-Pole 20 Amp 120V Bolt On Circuit Breaker equipped with a 120V Shunt Trip. Designed for optimal performance and safety, this breaker is ideal for both residential and commercial electrical applications. Ensure your systems are protected with this durable and efficient circuit breaker.
The 120V shunt trip allows the breaker to be remotely tripped open by energizing its coil with a 120V AC control signal — commonly used for emergency shut-off systems, fire alarm integration, or building automation. The shunt trip coil terminals are separate from the load terminals; a momentary or maintained 120V signal is applied to trigger the trip. A qualified electrician should wire the control circuit in accordance with the applicable electrical code.
The BAB series carries forward the Cutler-Hammer/Westinghouse bolt-on breaker lineage, so it is often a direct replacement for legacy Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse BAB-frame bolt-on breakers of the same amperage and pole configuration. However, always verify the panel's approved breaker list and the original breaker's voltage/interrupt rating before substituting. Contact our team with your existing breaker part number and we can help confirm a proper replacement.
Yes — Eaton BAB series breakers are CSA-certified and are acceptable for use in Canada under the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC). The BAB1020S is rated 20A, 1-Pole, 120V with a 10kA interrupting capacity, which meets the requirements for most residential and light commercial branch-circuit applications. Always confirm that the interrupting rating meets or exceeds the available fault current at the installation point.
