No, you cannot use a standard Eaton Type BR circuit breaker in a General Electric (GE) electrical panel. Standard BR breakers are engineered exclusively for Eaton load centers and lack the specialized bus bar clips required for GE enclosures. However, Eaton manufactures a specific UL-listed Classified CL replacement breaker series explicitly tested and certified to fit safely within certain legacy GE panels under strict National Electrical Code guidelines, but standard BR units will not work.
