Eaton CH8L125SP 125 Amp Main Lug Load Center, 120/240V, 8-Space

Eaton CH8L125SP 125 Amp Main Lug Load Center, 120/240V, 8-Space

Need to add a sub-panel or replace an old load center rated for 125 amps? The Eaton CH8L125SP is a main lug load center built for 120/240V single-phase power, with 8 spaces that can hold up to 16 circuits using tandem breakers.

Main lug means this panel does not have its own main breaker built in, it is fed from an existing main disconnect elsewhere in the system. It is rated for indoor use, mounts to the wall surface, and is listed to UL 50 and UL 67 with a 25,000 amp (25 kAIC) interrupting rating. One thing to know before you order: the ground bar is sold as a separate kit, it does not come inside the box.
