No incident, no one hurt Made Apr 27, 2011, published by CPSC Jun 2, 2011
The product, in the report: Residential Circuit Breaker for a main panel. Dual 20 amp poles in a single wide space.
Today I discovered one of my Crouse-Hinds MP2020N circuit breakers caught fire. I’d like to know the cause of something like this.
The circuit it was protecting only had a dehumidifier on it. The first outlet was a GFIC, and once a few days ago it had tripped. In this burned up state it was passing voltage.
I’m very concerned with what could cause this as I have many other breakers installed.
