Three questions on a distribution panel in a 2008 townhouse condo. (100 amp disconnect was outside.)
I’m pretty sure tandems are not allowed here due to the lack of those extra lines/markings on the diagram, and the ”2020” designation, is that correct?
Can someone identify the brand of these two different breakers? The panel and the rest of the breakers are Siemens.
How would I, as a HI, determine if this is a multi-wire circuit and therefore needs a common tie (and if so aren’t they on the same leg? Shared neutral?). I tried to see if those two went into one cable but wasn’t able to tell.
Thank you very much, all comments are appreciated, I find the theory aspect of electricity pretty fascinating.

Sorry, the copy & paste didnt work properly, trying again…

Eli,
It looks like you have multiple 4 conductor NM cables entering the top of the panel, and only one is used for a 240-V circuit. So, at least 6 suspected MWB circuits without tie handles. Plus the wafer (tandem) breakers and unmarked white wires at 240-V breakers at the bottom of the panel. Electrician.
