RossBryant 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.
My seimans elect panel box let me put in tandem breakers?
I wnt to install a tandem breaker but my panel box won't let me. Why?
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.
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.
Can I add a circuit breaker wired in parrell to a current breaker to reduce the load on the breaker?
Adding a circuit breaker in parallel with an existing breaker may not reduce the load on the breaker. It is important to size the breaker according to the electrical requirements of the circuit and not to bypass the original breaker. Consult with a qualified electrician to ensure the proper installation and function of the circuit breaker.
