Technical specifications indicate the Leviton LB120-P utilizes a hydraulic-magnetic trip mechanism, which provides thermal stability across varied ambient temperatures. Standardized testing protocols confirm the 20A single-pole unit is designed for a 120V alternating current environment, maintaining a 10kA interrupting rating. Material analysis confirms the chassis is engineered for the proprietary Leviton Load Center, featuring a plug-on neutral architecture that eliminates manual pigtail wiring.
Performance metrics demonstrate a reduction in installation time due to the jaw-and-busbar interface, though a high-insertion force is required to achieve a secure mechanical connection. While this specific SKU lacks internal wireless radios for data transmission, the hardware serves as a mechanical foundation that allows for future integration with energy monitoring modules. Structural dimensions are optimized for high-density panel configurations, prioritizing visual status indication through the clear-front panel design.
Compliance with electrical safety standards is maintained through the omission of internal Wi-Fi components in this mechanical variant, ensuring zero parasitic power draw and no risk of firmware-based operational failure.
Aggregated specification data lists the following operational parameters:
- Modes of operation: Manual Toggle, Automatic Thermal-Magnetic Trip, Hydraulic-Magnetic Precision Trip
The Leviton 20A 1-Pole Plug-On Circuit Breaker is a fundamental power distribution component designed for physical circuit protection without native telemetry. For users requiring real-time amperage tracking and remote trip notifications, the Leviton Smart Circuit Breaker with Remote Control offers an integrated digital monitoring layer within the same form factor.
This unit serves as a core component within the broader smart circuit breakers hardware classification, establishing a baseline for mechanical reliability in modern load centers.
