The CHOM240GFI is a Schneider 2P 40A ground fault circuit breaker designed for 120/240V applications. This reliable breaker features a push-in design for easy installation and a 10kA interrupting capacity, ensuring optimal protection against electrical faults. Ideal for both residential and commercial use, it enhances safety and performance in your electrical system.
The CHOM240GFI includes a built-in ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI), which monitors current imbalance and trips at approximately 5mA to protect against shock hazards. A standard CHOM240 provides only overcurrent and short-circuit protection. The GFI version is required by the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) in locations such as bathrooms, kitchens, garages, and outdoor circuits.
Yes — a 2-pole 40A GFCI breaker is a common choice for 240V hot tub and spa installations, and the CEC requires GFCI protection for such circuits. However, always verify the load's specific amperage requirements and confirm your panel model accepts CHOM-series breakers before installation. Contact our team for guidance.
