The Eaton QBH140 is a bolt-on style breaker from Eaton's QBH series, designed to mount in compatible Eaton/Cutler-Hammer CH (Type-CH) panelboards that accept bolt-on breakers. It is rated 1-pole, 40 A, 120 V, 10 kA interrupt — suitable for residential and light-commercial distribution panels within those ratings.
Bolt-on frames are not interchangeable with plug-in CH breakers; always verify your panel's bus type before ordering. Send us your panel model number and we'll confirm fitment.
The QBH series uses a bolt-on bus connection, while standard Eaton CH breakers use a plug-in (snap-in) bus connection. These two mounting styles are not interchangeable. You can only install the QBH140 in a panelboard that is specifically designed to accept bolt-on breakers. Check your panel's label or send us the model number and we'll confirm compatibility before you order.

A 10 kA interrupting rating meets the available fault current in most Canadian residential services and many light-commercial branch circuits. However, you should always verify the available short-circuit current at the point of installation — typically found on your utility or engineering documents. If your panel requires a higher AIC rating, we can help identify a suitable alternative. An electrician or engineer can confirm what's required for your specific installation under the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC).
