Any electrical gurus out there that can enlighten me on the use of the whole house surge suppressor on a split bus panel? Does it matter if the suppressor is on the mains and is not switchable?
I know the panel needs to be shut off in 6 or fewer motions. I see one double breaker with a missing handle tie but one leg not in use so I’m seeing that this panel can be switched off in 5 motions.
I usually feel more confident with panels but this one has me a little perplexed. Also having a hard time unraveling the mass of wires at the ground bar.
I put some other pics for those that like to analyze panels for kicks.
Not sure why the photos are improperly rotated. Any help with that would be great too!
Most of the consumer grade digital cameras produced in the past couple of years use virtual portrait mode, not true portrait mode. They cannot (or will not) agree on the EXIF codes for portrait mode.
