Guys, thanks for all the help, but I guess it is time to bite the bullet and get a pro in here. I was hoping there was an easy solution. Thanks again.

No, I don't have any 15 or 20 amp breakers with a red wire.

Here is our panel and you can see how you cannot get in without removing the meter. The wires and conduit come in from above.

It's a combination of both romex and conduit.

I wish I could just look for the common trip ties, but I think the electrician messed it up. (See original message.) I'm asking about the 30 amp breaker because I want to count up the hots vs the neutrals in the panel. The double pole 50 amp for the AC should only have 2 hots and a ground...

Makes sense. We have 2 double pole breakers. One for the AC, which was installed years ago, so I will assume 2 hots and a ground. What about an electric wall oven on a 30 amp breaker? The hots going in the breaker look like a #10 to me.

Why would I exclude 240 volt loads? 2 hots and 1 neutral, right?

I unfortunately hired an electrician that turned out to be hard to work with. Anyway, I thought he mentioned having shared some neutrals in the panel, but then he claimed that he didn't. Initially he had a couple of 20 amp breakers with handle ties, then he rearranged the breakers very quickly...
