Today's Federal Electric panel and funky colored (pink marble bak-o-lite) breaker and Exposed SEC

Yeah, I've come across those before. They're multi-colored, but always different colors each time you see one. I'm guessing they used recycled plastic bits?

and Exposed SEC


By SEC, I assume you mean service entry conductor. In the Canadian Electrical Code (Section 6-302(2); 6-308, you can use a bare neutral in a raceway (or conduit/EMT). With a bare aluminum neutral, it must be run above ground in a non-metallic or aluminum raceway.

Here's a link to a good FPE article, and if you look at Figure 4 you can see a couple more Psychedelic breakers
