Not that I know of. The largest GFCI breaker I have seen is a 60 amp.

Why are the GFCI breakers nuisance tripping in your 100 amp sub panel- is it because neutral bonded to ground?
It may be the GFCI breaker is defective. Make sure it is wired correctly. Neutral to neutral bar and ground to ground bar.
Does a double 50 amp breaker make a 100 amp?
No, a double pole 50 amp breaker protects a 240 volt supply at 50 amps. The number that is on the handle of the breaker is the amperage that the breaker will trip at if an overload occurs on the circuit.
If a 100a breaker keeps tripping?
If a 100 amp breaker keeps tripping there is an overload on the system.
You have 220v wiring 2 hots 1 common from breaker box to pool wiring box Common is wired to equipment ground is that correct?
Correction - 2 hot (2 * 120) = 240 volts common - neutral U R 100% correct PS: 240 motor for pool ? hmmm, learn something everyday The cable from the breaker box to the pool should be a 3 conductor. In that 3 conductor cable there should be a bare ground wire (the ground wire is not included in a cable wire count). The pool ground should be connected to that bare wire, not the white neutral. This bare ground wire is then grounded back at the breaker panel to provide a direct path to trip the breaker in case of a short circuit. Code requires a GFCI ahead of the pool load to detect ground faults. See related links below on GFCI's
100 amp breaker on outside pole what causes power to shut off or lights flickering?
Well the most probable answer is that you are exceeding your electrical load limits. This means that all the circuits on that 100amp breaker, i.e. ligts, outlets,etc are drawing more than the 100 amps you have available. You can most likely fix this by installing a higher amp main breaker, however if you do that you also need to check and possible install larger circuit breakers. Also you might want to check all your grounding and make sure you actually have all your outlets and lighting going to "earth ground", and if you have any GFCI circuits which would be in the bathroom or the kitchen and they are tripping due to excess amp draw or a short, this also could be a possiblilty.

What size breaker do you use for a 100 amp sub panel?
A 100-A sub-panel would be fed from a 100-A breaker.

Can you use a 100 instead 20 to change breakers?
To replace breakers in an electrical box it is extremely important the replace the breaker with the same wattage. Do not replace a 100 breaker with a 20 breaker is can cause damage.
If a 100a breaker keeps tripping?
If a 100 amp breaker keeps tripping there is an overload on the system.
How much should you pay for a 100 amp breaker?
probally about 100 dollars

How do you know if your single pole is 240 or 120?
A single pole breaker will be 120 volts. But to make 100% sure test it with a volt meter.
Does anyone have a build a bearville account that works?
Its 100% free, you can make your own.

What is the difference between a 100 amp breaker box and a 125 breaker box?
The amperage capacity of the main bus bars and the connection of the main breaker to the bus bars.
Can a 100 amp main have 2 50 amp breakers?
Yes.Additional InformationBreakers and fuses protect the wires to prevent fire. The 100 Amp breaker in the meter base (main) protects the wire from the meter base to the breaker panel. The 50 Amp breaker in the breaker panel protects the wire from the breaker panel to the outlet. Sometimes the 100 amp main breaker is located in the panel.If you are asking "Can you use two 50 amp breakers for the main breakers with a 100 amp service, then yes you can. The National Electrical Code allows you to use up to 6 breakers as the main overcurrent protection.
