I'm looking for a circut breaker/switch for a 30 amp x 220 volt generator. Does anyone have a source for a ten year old gen. Tried looking online thru factory parts listings, no luck.

Did you search the part number and manufacturer of the breaker itself? I suspect that will yield more hits than the Generac part number.

Studs or lugs on it?

Dave*99: Thanks for the info. I may use this one if I can't find a direct replacement. With this one, I would have to fab a bit of room for it as it is considerably larger, although it is probably better quality.

are they the push on resettable ones? they are basically universal .
some pics might help .
Cobbler: Thanks for replying. I will try to do pics, although I never have done so here. My original breaker is small and allways seemed weak. My generator was purchased at Lowes and was probably made to a price point deal. When I called Generac once about it, they basically told me to go to hell with it. Definitely had no interest in me or the generator. Local Generac dealers aren't interested either.
To answer Cobblers question, I haven't taken the old one out and therefore not sure about the wire hookups. It is a resettable type although it will no longer reset. Thanks for the interest and help.

Sorry that I took too long to reply. Lots of good help. Got busy with the holidays and let this slip. My thanks to everyone. I need to get back to this project and bring eveyone up to date. Happy New Year to all.
