Is there any documented industry standard for numbering breakers versus their location in the panel? For example, if all breakers are single pole the break #12 is in panel space #12, 13 is in 13 and so on. But, once you thrown in a couple of 2-pole breakers, breaker 13 may occupy spaces 17 and 19. So, on the panel schedule, would you label it CB-13 or CB-17? What about when you have a number of empty spaces in the panel but then have a breaker in the last space - say space 41? Would the breaker be labeled CB-41 or just count the empty spaces from you last breaker and let the breaker in space 41 be labeled CB-23 for example?
I've seen several different methods but I haven't been able to find a standard - just preferences.
Thanks in advance!
