The CHOM215GFI is a plug-in style breaker from Schneider's CHOM series, designed to fit Schneider Electric / Square D Homeline loadcentres and panelboards that accept CHOM-style plug-in breakers. As a 2-pole, 15A, 120/240V unit with built-in GFCI protection and a 10kA interrupting rating, it is suited for residential and light-commercial Homeline panels. Send us your panel model number and we'll confirm fitment before you order.
The CHOM215GFI includes a built-in Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) — it monitors for ground fault current imbalances and trips to protect against shock, in addition to overload and short-circuit protection. A standard CHOM215 provides overcurrent protection only, with no ground fault detection. The GFI version is required by the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) for locations such as bathrooms, kitchens, garages, and outdoor circuits.
In many cases, yes — the CHOM series is Schneider's current plug-in breaker line for Homeline loadcentres, so the CHOM215GFI is often the correct modern replacement for legacy 2-pole GFCI breakers in compatible panels. However, fitment can vary by panel vintage and bus configuration. We specialize in obsolete and hard-to-find breakers, so contact our team with your panel model and existing breaker details and we'll identify the right fit.
Yes. Like most 2-pole GFCI breakers, the CHOM215GFI includes a white neutral pigtail that must be connected to the panel's neutral bar to power the internal GFCI electronics. Without this connection, the ground fault protection will not operate correctly. Ensure your panel's neutral bar has an available lug position before installation.
