Function and primary purpose
The CHPSURGE is a combination circuit breaker and surge protective device built for 2‑pole, 240 VAC applications. It provides overcurrent protection as a plug‑on BR frame breaker while incorporating surge mitigation capability with an 18,000A surge rating.
- Combines circuit protection and surge suppression in a single BR frame plug‑on unit
- Suitable for branch circuits in 240 VAC distribution systems where a 2‑pole breaker is required
Electrical ratings and interrupting capacity
Key electrical characteristics supplied for the CHPSURGE are its 18,000A surge rating and a 10 kA interrupting rating (10kAIC). Use these figures to compare the device against the expected surge exposure and available fault current at the point of installation.
- Rated surge capacity: 18,000A
- Interrupting capacity: 10 kAIC (10,000 A interrupting rating)
- Nominal system voltage: 240 VAC (2‑pole)
Physical frame and panel mounting
The unit is described as a BR frame plug‑on breaker. That indicates it is intended to mount directly into compatible BR frame distribution panels using a plug‑on connection.
- Frame: BR
- Mounting: plug‑on style for BR frames
