The Eaton CHF240 is a CHF-series plug-in (push-in) breaker designed to fit Eaton CH (Type-CH) loadcentres and panelboards that accept plug-in CH-style breakers. Its 2-pole, 40A, 240V, 10kA rating makes it suitable for double-pole branch circuits such as electric ranges, dryers, A/C units, and water heaters. Note: The CHF (flush/push-in) profile is distinct from Eaton's BR series — confirm your panel accepts CH-style plug-in breakers before ordering. Send us your panel model number and we'll confirm fitment.
The CHF series features a flush or push-in design that snaps securely into compatible CH-style loadcentres, whereas the standard CH breaker uses a traditional plug-in clip. Both are rated for CH (Type-CH) panels, but always verify your loadcentre's breaker acceptance before substituting one for the other.
No — the CHF240 is designed specifically for Eaton CH (Type-CH) loadcentres and is not interchangeable with the BR series. BR panels require BR-series breakers. If you're unsure which series your panel uses, check the label inside the panel door or contact us with the panel model and we'll help you find the right breaker.
The CHF series can be difficult to source through general electrical supply channels, particularly in older or legacy panel configurations.
