I've looked at how panels and subpanels are normally setup and the one I'm looking at doesn't really look like anything I've seen, possibly because either:
I haven't seen enough panels to know what I'm looking at
It's older and wired differently
It was done wrong
Or maybe even some other explanation
I am posting a picture, I'm not interested in what's coming out of the right side knockout, that goes to a light fixture.
Now here is what I see, four wires come in from the bottom of the panel, one I assume is the neutral wire which is connected to the neutral bus, there are three other wires, one connects to the top of the right side breaker, which is then jumped to the left side breaker (I don't know if that's how it should be done) and the other two wires come from the bottom of each breaker.
Can anyone explain to me which wires do what if possible?
