Light Archon Redoubt 40A 2-Pole Circuit Breaker

Light Archon Redoubt breakers put the 40 A double-pole slot on one platform in the industry-standard 1 in. plug-on format. Pick the standard thermal magnetic unit for 240V appliance circuits or the GFCI unit where the plan calls for Class A ground fault protection on the full circuit, such as spa and hot tub feeds. Quote-first: add it to your quote list and the trade desk confirms panel fit before release.

The standard unit is a thermal magnetic 2-pole breaker with a common trip across both poles. The GFCI unit adds electronic ground fault sensing with a test button on the face and lands its factory pigtail on the panel neutral bar; it protects the entire downstream circuit, which is what the NEC asks of equipment like pools, spas, and hot tubs. Both units connect plug-on to the bus, occupy two pole spaces, and carry a 10 kA interrupt rating at 120/240V.

Frequently Asked Questions

What panels does this fit?
It fits Light Archon LC series and industry-standard 1 in. bolt/plug-on load centers - verify panel compatibility at quote review.

When do I need the GFCI unit?
Where the NEC requires ground fault protection on a 240V circuit, most commonly spa, hot tub, and pool equipment feeds. The standard unit covers ordinary appliance circuits. Your electrician confirms the requirement for your jurisdiction at quote review.

Does the GFCI unit protect the whole circuit?
Yes. Breaker-level GFCI protection covers the entire downstream circuit including the wiring run, not just a single outlet location.
