for all you guys who are fans of the Stab-Lok panels, this one is a clasic, sorry about pasting it inline but i forgot my password for photobucket


when you trip the breaker the bottom half of the panel goes dead.

Hey thanks for that article, I usually just advise clients with FPE panels that there have been statements from both sides regarding these panels and give them several web links and recommend they research it themselves.


this is the first time I have seen this article. very informative.


Its hard to avoid expressing an opinion when the facts are not definitive.
