Split bus panel -

[lfoster (Linda J. Foster, TREC # 7654)]

Correct me if I am wrong, here. :mrgreen:

-House built mid 60’s, service entrance panel
-Split bus panel
-Another set of conductors are attached on lugs beside the SEC lugs, which are then secured further down the panel. At that second securing, it is a double tapped with a smaller wire connecting to the other opposite side.

This makes all breakers hot (not fed from upper breaker) and exceeds the 6-throw rule.

Right ???

Oh, Stablock panel in hallway. The things we find.!

Thanks for all the input

Linda, I just recently found a panel similar to this one, maybe this will help .

Ive never seen this before

Looks like in that panel you have to throw every breaker?
