Bryant breaker boxes typically use Bryant circuit breakers. It is important to use breakers specifically designed for the Bryant panel, as using incompatible breakers can cause safety hazards. Always consult the manufacturer's guidelines or an electrician for the appropriate breakers to use.

Will a 100 amp breaker box work if there are 5 220 amp breakers and 7 110 breakers?
No, a 100 amp breaker box will not be sufficient for that configuration. The total amperage of the breakers exceeds the capacity of the main breaker. You would need a larger breaker box with a higher amperage rating to accommodate those breakers.

How do you hook up a 15 amp breaker to a 60 amp box?
If by "60 amp box" you mean a 60-amp service panel (circuit breakers or fuses), you would generally get a 60-A panel that has several slots designed to accept a variety of compatible breakers, from 15A to 60A. If you have a "box" with no breakers, you would need another "subpanel", with wires from the 60A box to the new subpanel, and install one or more 15A breakers in the subpanel. If you don't need more than one breaker, you might also simply use a 15A disconnect panel with a single breaker in it.
