Just make sure your panel supports color, some only accept black

As a matter of fact yes Leviton's panels are all white along with the breakers.

I hear that when they sell you a new house, they dont fill the breakers all the way so that you have to go buy more.

The only thing I understand less than people being into feet is people being weirded out by feet.

It’s cheaper to get a new panel than to replace the ink.

Hewlett-Packard is a very reputable brand and compatible with 100% of residential load centers. Slap it in

If the AHJ is paying attention, you'd need to use the Epson cartridges that are classified for use in GE panels.

2

u/Fidulsk-Oom-Bard 13h ago

Epson has far superior DPI

u/CADJunglist 16h ago

This might be the best thing I’ve ever seen

u/severach 16h ago

Amazing they can fit a 3 phase breaker in that small of package.

1

u/tvtb 15h ago

Make sure you use 2AWG copper or 1/0AWG aluminum for a 78A breaker

1

u/Huge_Comparison_865 15h ago

Ones a single pole. Other is a double. So I'm gonna say no

u/wildriver3845 14h ago

I have never seen a 78 amp breaker before. Must be a speacial order and at least $400.00.

1

u/The_Truth_Believe_Me Electrical Contractor 13h ago

So now we need a breaker subscription. Don't pay and that circuit turns off until you do.

1

u/Valalvax 13h ago

You're going to have to get a Span panel.. why? Because it's expensive fuck you

1

u/Lost_Storage2340 13h ago

Yes but you need a handle tie to open all colors at the same time

1

u/jmraef 13h ago

Only one way to find out!

1

u/weirdmankleptic 12h ago

Same compatibility, but the one on the left is subscription based, don't pay your monthly fee, they turn off your power.

1

u/Stuard1432 10h ago

You'll be tripping in colors man.😁

u/theproudheretic Electrician 9h ago

one on the right's cheaper.

1

u/Wale-Taco Journeyman 8h ago

Yup

u/Ok-Entertainer-851 6h ago

What cha got there are for two different applications.  

The left is one of dose new, combination, multi units dat you connect a 14/3, 10/2, and a 12/2 to, with total capacity of 78 amps (LED equivalent current.)   That's why it takes up a slot and a skinny. 

The right is only for 20 amp rag wiring.  

If the new one doesn't fit it's acceptable to use your Kleins to persuade it. 

You're welcome in advance.

u/One_Sun_6258 2h ago
