I have a Eaton panel with CH type breakers specified. Will this fit in that panel? I have lots of room.

I have CH breakers in my panel. The Seimens unit they shipped to me will NOT fit in a CH panel. I haven't followed up to see if Seimens makes a CH compatible unit. If you find out anything, I would appreciate an email. tomemitchell@cox.net

I am not sure and perhaps someone else here has an answer, but you may consider the Intermatic IG1240RC3, which can be used on most main panels. Also, you may consider the fact that although these whole house power arrestor are an excellent way to protect your equipment, they may not be able to protect your equipment hooked up to coaxial (e.g. cable) or DSL, etc.

This takes 2 full inches width. The regular CH type breakers are 3/4 wide so, no, it will not fit.

Yes. Fit mine like an OEM part. Word of advise, keep your screws off the current panel; you will need them.

All the responses I have read seem correct. However, just because the panel is rated for different name brand breakers, does not mean the breakers are rated for the panel. If you check the U.L. listing of the breakers, (if it matters to you), I think you will find many manufactures are not U.L. listed for any panel except there own.

yes. note that the shape of the cover plate is for a gfci outlet. as long as you use a "rocker" style switch it should fit fine.

No, not enough room in the box. You would have to cut drywall and replace with a larger one. This switch needs a whole single and a deep one at that.

It should fit any standard size outlet, regardless of it being for one or more switches. It is a very tight fit, but a little work with a metal file on the outlet cover makes it go in much easier.

It should as long as you have the net pocket below switches it replaces that panel

Generally, each manufacture's breaker boxes require different breakers that are not interchangeable. I have a Square D Homeline 200 Amp panel with enough room to add this protector without removing any breakers. However, before ordering this surge protector, I would like to confirm it will fit the Square D Homeline panel. I would also like to know it will protect all of the larger circuits, up to 70 Amp, which includes the Heat Pump, stove, etc. Can anyone confirm this?

most GE breakers fit the Siemens bus bar, there are some older breakers that are different where they fit on to the bus bar. Of course Siemens recommends using their breakers.

No. This panel only has space for the main breaker. If you want to add breakers, get one of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005GLDQVI You can add a 100amp breaker to it, and then use it to feed a sub-panel.

Yes, it is standard size and can be used in a 3 or 4 switch box. It os not too wide for any standard size plate hole.

This fits a murray breaker box and it fits in just like a double breaker. Which it is a surge protector & a double breaker, so all you have to do is take one of your double breakers or 2 single breakers out and put this in their place. Put the wires from the breakers you removed back into this breaker. Wire the white wire to the neutral ground bar and you're ready to go.

This unit requires 3-50 amp breakers for a total of 150 amps. So yes it will work with a 200 amp panel but if your power requirement for the whole house exceed that 200 amps you could have a problem. It would be a rare thing for that unit to ever draw the full 150 amps that is allotted to it but if multiple points in your home are drawing hot water at the same time it could happen. Hope this helps.

No you have to change the fuses and circuit breakers over from your old one. Its not hard but suggest you put some notations down on paper it will help

I would not try to "tirial" fit it too many times before your ready. I installed all five swithces and built a d-box with all my wiring then put the panel in place. The two tabs at the bottom have to be fully locked in and then the stock "orange" pins will lock in good. It takes a little finese to get it in but mine has stayed put for over a year with no problems.

The wall plate is not part of the switch. This switch will fit in any Decora-style wall plate. Just make sure you have enough depth as it does take a bit of room in the electrical box.
