QOBs' then?

But not as fun as getting to push the button.:smile: Of course the others are fun too. I probably took some life out of many a stock breaker by resetting them, then smacking them on my hand to trip them, then resetting them, then ...

That big #12 sheet metal screw in the lug on the tandem (lower right) doesn't really look like OEM stuff to me.

It kinda looks like a modern panel bonding screw.

I thought they were fun to reset too, until I did my first reset on a 1600A w/ assist. :grin:

I have made quite a bit of money resetting 2 pole Pushmatics that for some reason have gotten out of sync. Push once side A is on, B is off. Push again A is off and B on.

I like the screw in the lower right-hand breaker the best.

Sorry, didn't see all the following, pages.

Maybe that's the main breaker, and the screw is there to hold it down?:grin:

I have a working Push-O-Matic sub panel in my garage. If I have to replace a breaker i'm just going to change out the whole panel.Cause those replacement breakers are pretty expensive. Yes, Push-O-Matic breakers trip; everytime my wife pulls out the 10KW hair dryer.

I have seen many Pushmatics fail, but they always failed open. For the amount of time and abuse they took, I really don't have much bad to say about them. I certainly prefer them over GE breakers which are pretty much like buss bars disguised as breakers.

Does anyone know where I can get a Bulldog hat or t-shirt? And does anyone know if the same bulldog was used for ITE as the one for Mack trucks? They sure look the same!
