Eaton BRN230GF - 30A, 2-Pole, GFCI Ground-Fault Circuit Breaker

The Eaton BRN230GF is a dependable 30A, 2-Pole GFCI ground-fault circuit breaker designed to deliver safer, more reliable protection in electrical distribution systems. Built for industrial and commercial environments, it provides both overcurrent protection and rapid ground-fault interruption to safeguard people and equipment in panels, switchboards, and control centers.

Overview

With a 30-amp current rating and a 2-pole design, this GFCI breaker ensures that both hot legs in a 240V circuit trip together, making it ideal for motor control centers, distribution panels, and OEM assemblies where simultaneous disconnection is essential for safety and equipment protection.

What makes it unique

• Dual protection in one device: combines conventional overcurrent protection with built-in ground-fault detection to quickly disconnect on imbalances.
• 2-Pole configuration: ruggedly designed for 240V circuits, ensuring both conductors trip together for complete isolation.
• Industrial-grade reliability: purpose-built for demanding environments found in panelboards, switchboards, and control panels.
• Tailored for professional applications: especially suitable for industrial, commercial, and OEM settings where dependable protection and safe operation are critical.

Where it fits

• Panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers in industrial facilities
• Commercial electrical distribution where ground-fault protection reduces shock risk
• OEM equipment and integrated control systems requiring robust protection in 240V circuits

Why this matters

Traditional breakers stop at overcurrent protection; the BRN230GF adds ground-fault sensing to quickly disconnect when a fault to ground is detected. This reduces the risk of electric shock and protects sensitive equipment from fault conditions, helping facilities meet safety standards and maintain uptime in critical distribution and control applications.
