Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.
This is very common in commercial and industrial installations. You must be sure that your two breakers are fed from different phases or legs of your electrical service. Having both circuits fed from the same phase or leg might cause the neutral to melt and cause a fire without tripping any breakers.

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

A neural circuit where a single impulse is transmitted over and over?
it would be a reverberating circuit
Is the optic nerve a single nerve or a bunch of nerves connected?
It is a bundle of neurons, all flowing from the same general source (the eye) to the optic chiasm.
Can you have two circuits off one breaker?
No, a breaker is designed to handle the load of only one circuit. Connecting two circuits to one breaker can overload the circuit and potentially lead to electrical hazards such as overheating, tripping the breaker, or causing a fire. Each circuit must have its own dedicated breaker.
Can you use 3 phase circuit as 3 separate single phase circuit?
yes we can use as a single phase circuit because at practise directly the 3-phase circuit is made by combining the three single phase circuits
What is the difference between single pole and double pole thermostats?
A line thermostat on a 240 volt heater must open both of the supply lines that feed the heater. This is where the double pole thermostat is used. On 120 volt heaters only one hot line needs to be opened to shut the supply off from the source therefore a single pole thermostat is used.
What is spaced practice?
Spaced practice is a technique where students learn a single topic in different sessions instead of learning it in a long single session.
How are series parallel circuits different?
A series is an electric circuit with a single path.A parallel circuit is an electric circuit with multiple paths.
How do you make staircase wiring with two single phase?
We can do wiring in staircase by two different circuits.(i.e. R or Y or B).
All motor circuits require what kind of protection?
All motor circuits require protection against single-phasing.
What is the vascular bundle in the shape of a single central cylinder in a root called?
The stele.
A single arrow is broken but not ten in a bundle?
you are stronger together than alone
What is the bundle system of production?
The bundle system of production, where one or more workers performed a single operation on a repetitive basis. Once the bundle limit was reached, the work in process was passed on to the next station of workers.
What are the procedures for the connection of single and multi-phase circuits?
Check continuity
Single phase and three phase circuit?
Yes, there is a difference between single phase and three phase circuits.
Series circuits and parallel circuits how do they differ?
Components connected in series are connected along a single path, so the same current flows through all of the components.Components connected in parallel are connected so the same voltage is applied to each component
What is the definition of single tuned circuits?
a circuit in which secondary coil alone is tuned
What is a PS3 bundle?
It is a promotional offer that is used by stores to sell products, specifically ps3s. The bundle usually consists of a ps3 console controllers and/or a few video games. It usually works out cheaper if you buy a bundle as opposed to a single ps3 console.
