The Eaton Cutler-Hammer BRCAF115CS is a 15-amp, 1-pole circuit breaker designed for reliable arc-fault protection in residential and light commercial electrical systems. Built to fit Eaton’s Type BR panelboards and load centers, this Combination AFCI breaker helps you meet modern safety codes while maintaining a clean, consistent BOM for replacements and upgrades.

Key benefits you’ll notice with the BRCAF115CS:

• 1-pole, 15 A protection for branch circuits, delivering targeted arc-fault interruption where and when you need it.
• Type BR compatibility ensures seamless installation in compatible Eaton panelboards and distribution panels, keeping your electrical system unified and easy to service.
• Combination AFCI (Arc-Fault Circuit Interrupter) delivers enhanced protection against both series and parallel arc faults, reducing fire risk and increasing overall electrical safety.
• Replacement and BOM alignment ideal for replacement projects and stocking spares when you want to keep the original part number intact for procurement and service records.
• Trusted performance from Eaton Cutler-Hammer, a long-standing name in reliable circuit protection for generations of installations.

What makes this AFCI breaker uniquely valuable

Unlike standard breakers, the BRCAF115CS integrates arc-fault protection directly into a familiar Type BR form factor. This means you can upgrade safety and code compliance without a complicated panel retrofit. It’s especially well-suited for circuits that feed rooms with heating elements, living spaces, or areas with high electrical demand where arc faults can occur.

Ideal use cases

• Replacing an aging or non-AFCI breaker in a BR-series panelboard to meet current safety codes.
• Stocking a spare part to ensure quick, exact-fit replacements without mismatches in the field.
• Upgrading a distribution panel during remodels or tenant improvements where AFCI protection is required.
