Nice job. 😊
Thank you for a sanity check..I just bought a brand new 40 space Siemens PN panel Siemens SN4060B1200 and the main breaker won't lock over to the ON position. I checked the breaker with an ohmeter and the main breaker switch stays open circuit. It didn't come with machine screws to attach the front panel to the back piece either.
What is a good substitute for a Siemens 200 amp main breaker
can a Main breaker be repaired? I have a Murray Crouse 200amp breaker that the switch is not snapping in place and seems loose after powering it back on. a new one is around $1200 bucks.
Looks like my 20yo Siemens breaker won't move to the Off position....so guess I'll need to run down. Good news is it looks like this is an easy swap minus finding the breaker and of course any permit needed. Thanks for the video!
turn off all of the other breakers, then if you are able to pull the meter in your area without calling the power company, pull it. Check to make the wires feeding the main breaker are dead. You should need a flat head screwdriver, an Allen-key(not sure what size) and a socket either a 7/16 or 1/2 inch. And finally use noalox on the wires when putting them back into the breaker. It is good practice. If you have any questions, we can be reached on Instagram @taselectricllc
@@taselectric8206 thanks. I was able to get the part but checking on permits and power company; new smart meters have a security tag on them.
I have a simens breaker panel inside my manufactured home..main is getting very hot or trips sometimes when i run heat pump for a long time,,is it bad main or heat pump compressor
What is the amperage of your main breaker?

Hi, can I replace the 200 amp main breaker with a 100 amp? Thank you, and have a nice day
No
You need a closeup of how your doing it. Its hard to see with you standing IFO the panel and the shadows don't help. Just saying...
Pull the meter, loosen the lugs for the wire, remove the bolts that hold the breaker to the bus and remove breaker. Installation is in reverse
