The Stiebel Eltron Tempra 24 requires two (quatity 2) 60 amp double-pole breakers. Two hot wires are needed per breaker, for a total of 4 hot wires. Only one ground wire is necessary. Recommended wire size is 6 AWG. However, local building codes should be observed to make sure your installation is up to local code. A neutral wire is not used for installing any of the Tempra tankless water heaters because it runs solely on 220/240v. The neutral wire is needed for appliances that need 120v AND 220/240v to operate. For example, an electric stove needs 120v to run the clock or timer, and 240v to run the cooking elements. Simply run the 4 hot wires from you breakers to the Tempra 24 and make the connections as per the diagram on the link below: http://www.titanheater.com/proddetail.php?prod=Tempra-24 It is that simple. Just make sure you have suffient electrical service to handle this unit. IMPORTANT: Any project that involves electricity can be dangerous. This is a job for a professional. If you do not feel capable of carrying out this task please let a professional complete the task. Make sure all power at the breakers/electric panel is turned off/disconnected before doing any work.

Can double pole circuit breakers be changed into single to create more room in the pannel box?

No, double pole circuit breakers cannot be changed into single pole breakers. The breakers are designed for specific functions and changing them can create a safety hazard. If more space is needed in the panel box, consider upgrading to a larger panel box or rearranging the circuits to free up space.

What breakers are compatible with ge breaker boxes?

GE circuit breakers with catalog numbers ranging from THQL1115 through to THQL1150 can be substituted like for like with Cutler-Hammer circuit breakers coded CL115 through to CL150, ITE Siemens circuit breakers coded Q115 through to Q150 and Square D circuit breakers coded HOM115 through to HOM150. These are single pole breakers. GE circuit breakers with catalog codes from THQL2115 through to THQL2150 can be substituted with Cutler-Hammer circuit breakers CL215 through to CL250, Square D circuit breakers HOM215 through to HOM250 and ITE Siemens circuit breakers Q215 through to Q250 of the same amperage and voltage. These are double pole breakers.


How many pole breaker for air condition?

If the power requirement is 120 volts it will be connected to a single pole breaker rated at the amperage requirement of the air conditioner. If the voltage of the air conditioner is 240 volts, then a two pole breaker will be required.


How many 20 amp double pole breakers can go into a 100 amp panel?

The provisioning of the breakers in a panel has a physical limitation regarding how many breakers will fit and a load calculation based on what devices the panel has to support. Your question really applies to both types of breakers. There are rules of thumb for sizing and populating the panel. This information is in the National Electric Code. If you have an existing panel and a new application requiring additional breakers for 220 Volt applications, the current draw in panel can be measured by an electrician and you will know what additional load you can support. If breakers fit physically in the panel, but connected devices exceed the total current capacity you will trip the main panel breaker. At this point you would need to get an electrician involved.

Are tandem breakers safe to use in residential electrical panels?

Tandem breakers, also known as double-pole breakers, are generally safe to use in residential electrical panels as long as they are installed properly and meet the electrical code requirements. However, it is important to consult with a licensed electrician to ensure that the panel can accommodate tandem breakers without overloading the circuit.

240V appliances, such as range, dryer, air conditioner.


What brand of circuit breakers will fit a Gould electrical panel?

Siemens circuit breakers are compatible with Gould electrical panels. Siemens acquired the Gould brand, so their circuit breakers are designed to fit and work with Gould panels. Be sure to double-check the specifications to ensure compatibility before installation.


If you have spare fuses but they are not together how can you run a new 240V line?

Move things around until you have space for a double-pole breaker, which is required for 240V. Don't be stupid and connect 2 separate breakers in non-adjacent positions. It might work, and then again it might fry something too.
