Hello to the group,
I want to replace a Main breaker in a Pushomatic box. It is a 100 Amp.
I was able to buy a replacement unit. But it is designed for non-main use. That is to say it has two tabs which attach to the bus; and two connections for wires. The wire lugs are removable. But the holes in the tabs that used to be used for wire don't seem to line up with the holes in the two hot buses.
This is the new one I have:
T2100
Connecticut Electric UBIP2100 Pushmatic Circuit Breaker, 2-Pole 100-Amp
So, does anyone remember a difference in a main breaker and what seems like one only to be used for branch circuits ?
TIA
Bob
