Eaton CHFN130EP - 30 A, 120 V, 1-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

The Eaton CHFN130EP delivers dependable protection for single‑phase branch circuits in panelboards and load centers. At 30A and 120V, this 1‑pole molded case circuit breaker is built to safeguard residential, commercial, and light industrial installations with precise, reliable performance you can count on day after day.

Key features that matter in real-world panel protection

• Compact molded‑case design makes the most of panel space, helping you fit more circuits without crowding backplanes or bus bars.
• Thermal‑magnetic trip unit delivers stable, repeatable protection—thermal element handles gradual overloads while the magnetic element responds quickly to short circuits, minimizing damage to wiring and equipment.
• Plug‑in compatibility with matching Eaton OEM loadcenters and panelboards ensures straightforward installations, easy replacements, and consistent protection characteristics across your panels.
• Single‑pole, 30A, 120V configuration is ideal for protecting individual branch circuits such as lighting, outlets, or dedicated small‑appliance circuits within homes and small commercial setups.
• Designed for reliability in a wide range of environments, from residential basements to commercial service rooms and light industrial spaces, where space efficiency and dependable trip performance are paramount.

Why this matters for your electrical system

Choosing the CHFN130EP means you’re selecting a breaker that coordinates with Eaton’s panel ecosystem, reducing mismatches and ensuring predictable trip characteristics. The combination of a compact form factor and a robust thermal‑magnetic trip mechanism translates to fewer panel deratings, simpler wiring schematics, and faster service turns when maintaining or expanding circuits. For property owners and technicians, that means less downtime and clearer diagnostics when a fault occurs or a circuit needs to be updated.

Ideal use cases

• Upgrading or stocking a residential service panel where a reliable 30A, 120V single‑pole solution is required.
• Protecting dedicated circuits in light commercial spaces, such as lighting runs or receptacle groups in offices or shops.
• Replacing a failed or aging breaker in panelboards designed for Eaton’s OEM lineup to maintain panel integrity and coordination.
