Eaton CL130CS Circuit Breaker - UL 489, 30A, 10 kAIC
Part Number: CL130CS
Quick Summary
The Eaton CL130CS circuit breaker provides reliable thermal-magnetic overcurrent protection for CH loadcenter installations. When replacements are scarce or mismatched, panel downtime and wiring errors can derail maintenance schedules. UL 489 listing ensures safety compliance for molded‑case breakers, while the 1‑inch classified form factor enables fast, safe retrofits—paired with a 10 kAIC interrupt rating for higher fault protection. Designed to work with Type CH load centers and with #14-4 AWG Cu/Al conductors, it supports streamlined stocking and easy field upgrades. For engineers and maintenance teams, this combination translates to higher reliability, reduced inventory complexity, and faster project turnaround.

FAQs
The CL130CS is a 30 A, single-pole, 120/240 V thermal-magnetic breaker designed for CH load centers. When installing, ensure a 1-inch space in the panel and use #14-4 AWG Cu/Al conductors. The clamshell-pack packaging aids handling, and the unit is UL 489 listed, meeting safety standards for field retrofits in both residential and light commercial panels.
Key specs include amperage rating of 30 A, voltage rating of 120/240 V, interrupt rating of 10 kAIC, and single-pole configuration. It uses Type CH, CL main circuit breaker compatibility, and accepts #14-4 AWG Cu/Al conductors. These specs support reliable protection for branch circuits while maintaining compatibility with CH Loadcenters.
Yes. The CL130CS is listed as a classified replacement with catalog notes indicating compatibility with legacy breakers from brands like Square D Homeline, GE THQ, Crouse-Hinds MP, Thomas and Betts TB, Murray MP, and ITE/Siemens QP. This broad compatibility supports modernization projects without panel redesign, reducing downtime and inventory complexity.
The CL130CS carries UL 489 certification, verifying compliance with standardized safety requirements for molded-case circuit breakers. It is also specified as a classified replacement for 1-inch form-factor installations, enabling confident retrofits in CH load centers and ensuring adherence to applicable electrical codes.
Using the CL130CS offers measurable maintenance benefits through faster replacements, reduced panel downtime, and improved stocking efficiency thanks to the clamshell-pack presentation. The 30 A rating and 10 kAIC interrupt capability enhance protection while enabling compatible substitutions across legacy panels, resulting in lower total cost of ownership for service crews.
