Yes, they are the same. Westinghouse, Cutler Hammer and
Eaton Manufactured these Bolt-on Breakers. The label says Type BA but the
Manufacture part number starts BAB.

BAB Circuit Breakers originally had only one handle in 1, 2 and 3 Poles.
The improved design and function made this change to one handle per pole and a
Plastic tie bar so they have a common trip on 2 and 3 poles.

The EHD Circuit Breaker originally had Blue Labels and Currently are White with Red Lables . This is the replacement for older EHB Circuit Breaker

The CF25K circuit breaker is manufactured By Challenger Electric Corporation. They have been obsolete for quite a while now. They are excellent quality circuit breakers used in 480 volt panelboards. These have an interrupting capacity of 14,000 @ 480 Volt. They were available with load lugs for panelboard mount and also with lugs on both sided for wire in and wire out applications. They were white and grey and had blue and white lables. The section in blue gave the catalog Number, serial number and how many poles. It also stated the aic ratings.

Can you buy them used or reconditioned?

YES you can but I do not suggest it. Used and reconditioned circuit breakers are sold by individuals with no knowledge of the items, No testing Equipment and your cost is similar to a brand new replacement that will fit in the same spot without any modification at all. If you have experience with a well established Circuit Breaker reseller that knows the product and understands what proper testing is, you do not have to worry as long as it is load tested. Load testing injects 3 times the amperage and there is a time curve when the circuit breaker should trip. Testing equipment costs thousands of dollars or tens of thousands depending on the size and options included.

 How do I know the catalog number of CF25K Type Circuit Breakers.

 Here is a sample for 3 poles. The part number will start with the Type. The type is CF. the second is a number telling how many poles and the last 3 are for the Amperage. It is Three Digits so for a 20 amp, it is 020 or for 100 Amp, it is 100. Part number CF3050 would be type CF 3 Pole 50 Amp. The 25K is not included in the Part number.

A: A 3-Pole circuit breaker is designed to interrupt the current simultaneously on all three phases of a three-phase electrical system, making it suitable for motor loads and other 3-phase equipment up to 480V.

A: Yes. Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer, so the GHB series is now manufactured and marketed under the Eaton name. The fit, form, and function of the GHB series remain identical to the original Cutler-Hammer models.

A: The required amperage is determined by the size of your load and the wire size used in the circuit. Always ensure the breaker's ampere rating matches the circuit conductor's ampacity to prevent overheating and comply with electrical codes.

The Challenger CF25K is an obsolete model of molded case circuit breaker. Information about it often centers on its specifications and, more importantly, finding suitable modern replacements, as it is no longer manufactured.

A: The "CF25K" designation refers to the frame size and the Interrupting Rating (AIC). The specific amperage and voltage depend on the model number (e.g., CF3060, CF3070, CF3100) within this series.

• Interrupting Rating (AIC): 25kAIC (25,000 Amps Interrupting Capacity) at 480 Volts (VAC).
