    Panel question 20 spaces 20 circuits with 240V

    Looks like I got 3 votes for the Copper. Hopefully If I order the 2040 copper the guts will fit in the 2020al box and I can swap the cover so it will say QT breakers. If not, I'm assuming at least the knockouts will be the same. At this point I only have 4 EMT conduits coming in and 2 NM...

    Panel question 20 spaces 20 circuits with 240V

    OK next question. I have the Aluminum version of this box PN2020L1125. At this point the box is pretty easy to change and not too expensive. But I'm finding there is a copper version as well in both the 2020 and 2040 PN2020L1125C and PN2040L1125C. They are about $50 more. Is there any reason I...

    Because Karen in the town hall said no.

    Panel question 20 spaces 20 circuits with 240V

    Only reason I can think of for having both is that the 2040 might not be allowed in some places.

    Panel question 20 spaces 20 circuits with 240V

    That's exactly what I'm thinking. Even if I have to purchase a new box and transfer parts it would be worth while

    Panel question 20 spaces 20 circuits with 240V

    Chuckle of the day. Siemens response to the question. I actually was successfully able to contact GE customer service for similar question years ago. So I will keep looking.

    Panel question 20 spaces 20 circuits with 240V

    Its actually confusing the diagram inside the box implies that I can convert mine to 40 circuits by installing ECNBX kit(s). But in the scenario I proposed 10 240V and 10 120V, I would have enough grounds and neutrals as is. Differences in pictures between the 2020 and 2040 appear to be the...

    Panel question 20 spaces 20 circuits with 240V

    It looks like I might be getting some AI BS. If it cant take 30 circuits can it be converted to 30 circuits.

    No QT, but QTA and QTAN? Not sure what that means.

    Panel question 20 spaces 20 circuits with 240V

    I have a Siemens CB panel PN2020L1125C, that specifies 20 spaces 20 circuits. But it accepts QT (thin) breakers. So my question is, does a double pole 240V breaker count as two circuits or 1. Can I put 10 240V breakers and 10 120V breakers in this box?

    E Heat circuit breaker getting hot?

    I wonder if that will even be enough. Temps going down to -2 tonight and -8 the night after. After that no more negative numbers on the horizon. But not even close to the record low in CT of -32.

    E Heat circuit breaker getting hot?

    Well with temps down around 0 last night I did find that I need that last 5KW coil, I was running about 5 degrees low last night. I have another week of these temps with overnight lows around 0.

    E Heat circuit breaker getting hot?

    Yes but it might not be the case that you need 12KW to maintain temperature. It may be the case where its more cost effective to run at 12KW than at 10KW on the heating strips.
