​​I was hoping I could glean some knowledge from you bright sparks.


I have a very old (and should be illegal) Federal Pacific 3 Phase Board that I am updating. It currently has 36 ways (with 2 Triple Pole and 30 Single Pole Breakers) with 3P 100a Disconnector.


There aren't many Boards that can fit that amount of outgoing ways, but I've find Europa Components do one.


Is it a case of switching old SP Breaker for new SP Breaker, and similarly for 3P Breaker.


I've attached a picture to hopefully help with your advice.


Thanks

    Hello, why are you updating the board? Are you adding R.C.B.O.s? Check compatibility before buying any new components. Why do you think that the board should be classed as "illegal"? Is it because one triple pole breaker seems to be of a different make to the board itself?
