Arc fault and ground fault protection is built into the BRP120DF, delivering a robust safety margin for critical control circuits and reducing the risk of electrical fires in busy industrial environments. The 20 A rating paired with a 10 kAIC interrupt capability translates into reliable performance during short circuits, supporting compliance with safety standards and NEC guidelines. In practice, this means fewer nuisance trips in normal operation and quicker isolation of faults, minimizing downtime on production lines and improving overall plant reliability. The breaker’s compact footprint enables denser panel layouts, reducing cabinet depth and enabling more efficient use of space in control rooms and electrical rooms. The single-pole BR design simplifies wiring schemes and streamlines field upgrades, while plug-on neutral wiring accelerates installation and minimizes wiring mistakes during retrofits or new builds. This combination also supports standardized procurement and easier spares management across facilities that rely on BR-series components. Manufacturers benefit from predictable trip curves, straightforward maintenance cycles, and lower lifecycle costs thanks to higher reliability and readily available replacement parts.

FAQs
To install the BRP120DF, power down the panel, open the enclosure, and verify compatibility with the BR series bus. Remove the existing device if applicable, then snap the BRP120DF into the bus and tighten the terminal screws for the load and line connections. Ensure the neutral path is prepared for plug-on neutral operation and follow NEC guidelines and the Eaton BR specification sheet for torque values.
BRP120DF is a single-pole arc fault/ground fault circuit breaker rated at 20 A with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating. It is UL Listed and designed for BR-type mounting with plug-on neutral capability. Physical dimensions are 2.9 in wide, 2.9 in depth, and 0.9 in height, with an approximate weight of 0.4 lb. These specs support safe, reliable protection for common branch circuits in industrial panels.
Yes. The BRP120DF is purpose-built for industrial and commercial panels that require arc fault and ground fault protection. Its 20 A rating fits typical branch circuits, and the 10 kAIC interrupt capability provides a wide fault current margin. The plug-on neutral feature and BR-form factor further simplify integration into existing BR-series systems and new panel designs.
The BRP120DF carries UL Listed certification, which supports safety compliance for industrial installations and panel construction. This certification helps streamline internal audits and third-party verifications. For international or specific regulatory requirements beyond UL, consult local standards and the Eaton specification sheet to confirm compatibility with CE, IP ratings, or SIL assessments where applicable.
The BRP120DF contributes to ROI through reduced downtime from nuisance trips and faster fault isolation in control cabinets. Its compact form enables denser panel layouts, lowering enclosure costs, while plug-on neutral wiring speeds installation and minimizes wiring errors. The UL Listed certification and wide availability of BR-series parts also simplify maintenance planning and spare-part provisioning.
