Eaton GHQRSP1020 circuit breaker is suitable for protecting ventilation, heating, refrigeration & air conditioning equipment against current overloads & short circuits.
Working Mechanism:
- The circuit breaker opens when pressure is applied to the trigger.
- When faulty current flows through the system, the trip coil of the breaker gets activated.
- This moves the contacts away from each other and opens the circuit.
Features:
- It can accommodate copper and aluminium wires having sizes ranging from 14 to 4 AWG.
- This circuit breaker features thermal-magnetic trip unit for delivering both time-delayed & instantaneous current limiting protection.
- It provides bolt-on mounting for ease-of-installation.
- This circuit breaker has a maximum interrupting capacity of 65kAIC at 120V & 14kAIC at 480 / 277V.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the difference between MCCBs and MCBs?
A.
- MCBs protect items from current overloads while MCCBs protect equipment from fault currents & excess temperature rise.
- The tripping circuit of MCBs is fixed while MCCBs have a movable tripping circuit.
- MCBs have comparatively low interrupting ratings than MCCBs.
Q. Where is an MCB installed?
A. MCBs are mainly installed in areas where high current is required, like hotels / offices / industries.
Q. What is the maximum operating temperature of Eaton GHQRSP1020 circuit breaker?
A. It can be operated at temperatures up to 40 degrees C.
