    Default 240v AC breaker with 120v AC

    I'm rebuilding my control box and I want to protect my main entry with a circuit breaker.

    It will be mounted on DIN rails. I can find lot of 240v breaker with the right amperage (15A) but the choice is limited for 120v AC 15A in DIN mountable format.

    Can a just put a 240v 15A?

    Thanks

    15 amps is 15 amps, the voltage rating is the max working voltage for the breaker. The 240V breakers will be fine.
