Eaton labels show BR or CH and list the breakers allowed in the panel.

How to tell BR from CH

BR breakers are 1 inch wide with black handles. BR is Eaton's widely sold residential line.
CH breakers are 3/4 inch wide, often with tan handles and a trip indicator. CH carries the Cutler-Hammer name.
Some older homes have Westinghouse panels. Eaton took over that business, so replacement parts may come from Eaton.

The panel label lists which breakers are allowed. We go by the label every time.
