Eaton EGH2040FFG - 40 A, 600 V, 2-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

The Eaton EGH2040FFG is a 40A, 600V, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker designed to deliver dependable branch circuit overcurrent and short-circuit protection in panelboards and load centers. With its compact form factor and proven thermal-magnetic protection, it keeps your electrical system safe without sacrificing panel space.

• Compact molded case design maximizes available space in crowded panels, making it easier to fit multiple breakers in residential, commercial, and light industrial installations.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit provides stable, repeatable protection by reacting to both sustained overloads and instantaneous short-circuit events, helping prevent nuisance trips while maintaining fast interruption when needed.
• OEM-compatible compatibility is engineered to work with matching OEM loadcenters and panelboards, ensuring straightforward replacement and reliable performance within existing systems.
• Versatile industrial-grade protection capable of handling a range of applications—from home service panels to small business or light industrial electrical systems—where clean, predictable interruption is critical.

What this means in practice

• Install the EGH2040FFG in panelboards or load centers to safeguard individual branches against overloads and short circuits, protecting wiring, devices, and the overall electrical infrastructure.
• Benefit from a two-pole design that can simultaneously protect both conductors of a circuit, improving safety and coordination in multi-wire branch circuits.
• Rely on consistent performance across a range of environments thanks to Eaton’s durable MCCB construction, designed for residential, commercial, and light industrial settings.
