Hello,
I researched the forum and NEC and I am convinced that there is not really a requirement that a load center / panelboard has to have bolt-on breakers. [Although we all know that bolt-on breakers are more preferred].
Now, in an Industrial environment, I think going conservative is only going to do good and for safety. Is there any code that specifies to use a superior quality equipment "when available" for Industrial environment ?
I guess, personally speaking, not too comfortable to see "Home depot" quality load center in an Industrial environment. Cost savings is one thing, but lets keep that point apart for Industrial environment.
Thanks,
