Residential loadcenter and circuit breakers
Installation tips
CH & BR plug-on neutral loadcenters and circuit breakers
Drywall offsets tabs
For flush mount applications,
•
utilize the drywall offsets at
the top and bottom on both
sides of the loadcenter.
Push the tabs out 90 degrees
•
so that they are perpendicular
to the side of the loadcenter.
When installing the loadcenter
•
between studs, the tabs help
provide the proper drywall
offset.
Keyhole hanging feature
Take advantage of the
•
keyhole hanging feature for
an easy and hassle free cover
installation.
Place the top two cover
•
screws in the loadcenter
case holes. Then, align the
top two cover keyholes with
the top two cover screws to
easily hang the cover.
The cover keyhole hanging
•
feature also works for
bottom feed applications.
Torque rating
The torque rating information
•
can be found on the loadcen-
ter PUB. Refer to the chart
on the PUB for the specific
torque value required. After
referencing the chart, use a
torque wrench to torque to
the specified value.
Green bonding screw
The green bonding screw
•
comes unthreaded.
When required to bond the
•
ground and neutral, thread the
green bonding screw into case
with 40 in-lbs of torque.
For applications when the
•
ground and neutral should
not be bonded, it is recom-
mended that the green screw
is removed entirely and
discarded.
Main breaker loadcenters
and terminal insulators
Install terminal insulators to
•
the service entry cable and
line-side lugs of the main
breaker device.
All 225A and smaller main
•
breaker loadcenters ship from
the factory with a terminal
insulator kit.
The terminal insulator kit will
•
need to be purchased sepa-
rately for main breaker load-
centers greater than 225A.
Ordering a convertible
loadcenter
To order a convertible loadcen-
•
ter, select a loadcenter catalog
number with "N" or "E" as
the main device designation.
"N" indicates convertible load-
•
center with no main device
installed at factory.
"E" indicates convertible
•
loadcenter with main lugs
installed.

Questions and answers
Info on determining CH loadcenter balancing
To determine load center balancing for Eaton CH, you need to ensure that electrical loads are evenly distributed across both legs (phases) of the panel. This means:
1. Identify the amperage and voltage of each circuit.
2. Count how many circuits are on each side (leg) of the panel.
3. Add up the loads (in amps or watts) on each leg.
4. Compare the totals for both legs.
Adjust circuits if one leg has significantly more load than the other to maintain balance. This helps prevent overloading and improves system efficiency.
