Schneider Electric | CHOM140 | Circuit Breaker | 1-Pole

Meet the Schneider Electric CHOM140, a purpose-built 1-Pole circuit breaker designed for precise protection in maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects. If you’re aligning with exact specifications, this device offers a reliable, drop-in solution that keeps your electrical system protected without guesswork.

Key advantages at a glance

• 1-Pole configuration delivers targeted protection for individual circuits, making it ideal for dedicated lighting runs, small appliance feeders, and other single-branch applications.
• Exact part reference CHOM140 ensures you’re selecting a compatible unit for your panel or distribution board, reducing the risk of fitment issues and unnecessary swaps.
• Maintenance-ready and retrofit-friendly designed to slot into existing installations where this specific part number is required, helping you complete servicing missions quickly.
• Reliability you can count on backed by Schneider Electric’s engineering heritage, delivering consistent performance and predictable protection over time.

Ideal use cases

The CHOM140 shines in scenarios where a single-pole breaker is needed to complete a protective path within an electrical panel. It’s particularly well-suited for:

• Routine maintenance, when a spare or replacement breaker version is specified by the panel manufacturer or service technician
• Retrofits that require restoring the original protection profile without altering the panel’s architecture
• Repairs or upgrades in residential and light commercial settings where a 1-Pole device is appropriate for the circuit being protected

Compatibility and ordering guidance

• Notes: Confirm fit and ratings before ordering to ensure seamless installation and compliant protection for your specific panel.
• The CHOM140 part number is the most reliable reference for compatibility. Always cross-check with your panel labeling or manufacturer documentation to confirm the exact fit and trip characteristics.
• Having the exact CHOM140 on hand minimizes downtime during service calls and stock-replenishment cycles, especially when uniform protection devices are specified across multiple panels.

Installation considerations

When replacing a breaker with CHOM140, follow standard electrical safety practices: disconnect power to the panel, verify non-energized conditions, and ensure the replacement aligns with the panel’s form factor and bus connection. If you’re unsure about ratings or physical fit, consult the panel documentation or a qualified electrician to prevent misalignment or insufficient protection.

Why this matters

Choosing the Schneider Electric CHOM140 means staying within a precise part reference that aligns with your panel’s protection strategy. It’s a focused, reliable option for professionals who demand compatibility, predictable performance, and streamlined procurement for maintenance, retrofit, or replacement projects.
