Residential circuit breaker warranty update

Eaton has recently updated the limited warranty terms for residential products. The new limited warranty terms go into effect on June 1, 2024, and will be applied based on the manufacture date of the circuit breaker. The previous warranty documents, dated 2005, will continue to apply to products manufactured prior to June 1, 2024.

Highlights of some of the changes to our limited warranty include:

• Updating our limited warranty’s terms to make them more consistent with, if not stronger than, other industry manufacturers
• Consolidating various limited warranties into a single limited warranty
• Updating who and how to contact Eaton for warranty service and questions
• Reiterating what is and is not covered by the limited warranty
• Changing the limited warranty’s length for CH Electronic Breakers (AFCI and GFCI)
• Providing for a new dispute resolution section that includes mandatory, individual arbitration and limitations of liability
