Selection guide questions to assist with load center selection
- Do you want QO (Copper Bus) or Homeline (Aluminum Bus)?
- Do you want Main Lug or Main Breaker? (Main Lug means there is no main disconnect)
- What maximum amperage rating of load center do you require?
- If QO, do you want a Single or Three phase load center? (If Homeline we ONLY offer Single phase).
- How many total number of spaces do you need in the load center? Will you be using any Tandem breakers? (a Tandem breaker is 2 circuits in 1 pole space)
- Do you need an indoor or outdoor load center? (if Indoor and QO, do you want a Surface or Flush cover. If Homeline is selected, then ALL Homeline load centers come standard with a combination cover so not choice is required).
- If QO do you want a Plug-On Neutral CAFI load center? Note: All convertible main Homeline load centers are Plug-On Neutral design
Other Tips/Information:
A. Verify the Short Circuit Current Rating (SCCR) of the voltage system to ensure correct load center for the application
B. Generator application potentially requires a different load center or additional catalog numbers
C. Consider any accessories that might be required for the application
