No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.Oh look at you mister way ahead of the times. I suppose you've had a "Mr Fusion" personal fusion generator for a few years now too?
You know I seem to remember Siemens having them in there already. I use Eaton BR and I have to buy them separately. Still worth itI usually Siemens and it's nice they come with two ground bars. SQ D drives me crazy , have to buy them separately
It's kinda weird, I've been doing electrical for about 25 years now, and panel makeup is something I keep doing a bit different each time. Seems like I am never 100% happy with how it comes out so next time I try a slight variation. The top horz ground bar is a relatively new method and I think it's def a keeper for me
Any small house less than 1500ft
Is it the NQ one that takes both regular and bolt on qoDefinitely. I hate making up a full or nearly full 40 space. Takes forever, got to be real neat and careful to have it be nice in the end, and it's still packed and just not my fav. I'm the guy who has a 66 space true panelboard in my house, so I get real grumpy quick not having a luxurious amount of space
No it's a Siemens P1, takes bolt ons, BL or BQD
Non CTL tandems will fit any slot, even in a panel not designed to take tandems.
Yes it does.
Square D depends on exactly what catalog number the supplier stocks. They sell many of the main lug load centers with ground bars included at the supply house but big box stores seem to like to stock the ones without ground bars. Square D load centers often do have a place on end opposite the mains for a horizontal mounted ground bar as well.I usually Siemens and it's nice they come with two ground bars. SQ D drives me crazy , have to buy them separately
I have collection of things I have removed over the years and kind of wonder at times why I kept most those items. Particularly the items that have been discontinued or at least replaced by newer design.
An old ground bar comes in handy as a splice in a pinch. I recently needed to convert from aluminum to copper but didn't have any means handy. I ended up cutting off a few pieces of a ground bar each with two screws. A healthy wrap with some good tape and it was done.
Yes I done that sort of thing before. Combo lugs off 400 amp equipment that accept one or two conductors make great temporary splices on 200 amp conductors when needed in a pinch as well.
Yes. If I had some of those, I would have used them. When you're 10 miles up a dirt road, you do what you have to do
Ten miles is nothing out here. Though it is a little further if it has been raining and that dirt road is a sloppy mess.
They come with compound in the holes, they're self-insulating, and easy to open and re-use.
