Number of ways in a Panelboard

What is meant by number of ways in Panelboard?
How does it impact if the panel board has
a) Single pole circuit breakers and a common neutral bus (230V Line to Neutral)?
b) Double pole breakers (230V Line to Line)
c) Double Pole breakers (230V Line to Neutral)

Is the quantity of breakers has to be multiples of 3 in any panel board?

It all depends. If you look at the Schneider Powerpact panel boards, my MCCB panel board of choice, they quote numbers of single pole ways and triple pole ways. If you want 4 pole MCCBs then you do not get as many ways as you need a neutral kit for the 4 poles. Speak to Schneider technical before ordering they are very helpful. I have a contact from Eaton if I want to use MEM 4 MCCB panels and need advice. If you are specifying a panel to be built then you say what you want from the panel builder.
