My question may sound elementary, but I am still int he process of learning and am not a licensed Inspector yet.
I was inspecting my own electrical panel and this is what I came across:
My house was built in 1993 and I have a Challenger service panel. While inspecting the panel, I discovered the panel has 3 different kinds of breakers (GE, Cutler-Hammer and Square D). I did some research and found the Cutler-hammer is acceptable and that square D is not, but I could not find anything on the GE breakers.
Yes, you are correct about the Square D Hom breaker not being allowed.
Is there a label on the panel cover that states the type(s) of breakers allowed. What type are the Challenger breakers?
Rodrigo,
When you inspect the label, see of the tandem breakers are in the correct locations and that the number of them do not exceed what is on the label.
