Thanks to Scott Smith, my new jointer is home safe and in the shop, something I couldn't have done by myself nor with such class.
Thanks to Scott Smith I now understand what is going on inside my shop's sub-panel, and feel confident working on it.
Thanks to Scott Smith I am now working on re-wiring a good portion of my shop, and hopefully will be less likely to have my house burn down due to an electrical problem (he knows about this well).
Thanks to Scott Smith I have been given good advice and only needed 3 trips to the BORG today to get all the stuff to run new 220A circuits, add a new plug/pigtail lead off my jointer to get to the new 220a receptacle.
Thanks to Scott Smith I am now confused. He very correctly identified my panel as a Culter Hammer box, and recommended that I get the new breakers that should fit.
Well there is where my problem/confusion comes in. I bought new CH breakers but they don't fit in the panel. Here is some pics of what I have going on in hopes to get further advice on what to do -
New CH breaker on the left and original on the right -
Poor pic showing how the spring clips won't match up to the main power strip -
My panel in a state of re-working, if it helps with the breaker ID -
Any advice on the breaker replacement issue would be highly appreciated. Comments on the other problems in the panel are already known, and are in the process of being fixed
TIA for any help that can be provided.
