Wi‑Fi connectivity enables remote status monitoring, fault alerts, and real-time energy data that can feed into the AbleEdge home energy management system. The business impact is tangible: faster fault isolation, reduced truck rolls, and better preventative maintenance planning. In practice, engineers install these breakers in BR-type panels to gain scalable, cloud-connected protection across multiple circuits. With a 50 A amperage rating and a 120/240 V supply, this two-pole GFI device protects high-load circuits while safeguarding personnel from ground faults. The GFCI capability is essential for kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor installations where moisture is a concern. Plug-on mounting simplifies field wiring and alignment, cutting install time and minimizing torque-related issues. The compact 2.7 in depth and 4.9 in width fit standard enclosures without crowding adjacent devices, improving panel organization. Interrupt rating of 10 kAIC ensures reliable interruption of high-energy faults in common residential and light-commercial panels, contributing to safer operation and reduced arcing risks. UL 489 listing guarantees safety compliance; the product integrates with Eaton’s AbleEdge ecosystem for remote monitoring and energy management. Industry context favors smart-building practices, and this breaker supports data-driven decisions while preserving code conformity. This makes it a practical choice for contractors handling renovations and new builds alike.
