Legally, you must use the same brand breaker with the brand panel. They sell Murray breakers at your area electrical contractor shop, but used I am sure. However, square d homeline, siemens ite, GE, cutler hammer BR do fit but will void the UL listing and are dangerous to mix. Upgrade your panelboard. It is old.
In my experience, NOTHING is compatible with a Murray panel. Others claim there are certain Siemens and Federal Pacific breakers or Eaton type "CL", but you might have to obtain permission from the inspector to use anything other than Murray.
Circuit breakers are typically located in a centralized electrical panel, which is commonly found in basements, utility rooms, or garages of homes and buildings. The panel is usually a metal box with a hinged door that can be opened to access the circuit breakers inside.
No, Homeline circuit breakers are designed for Square D electrical panels and are not compatible with Siemens electrical panels. It is important to use circuit breakers specifically designed for the brand and model of your electrical panel to ensure proper fit and function.
The legend identifying the breakers inside an electrical panel is typically just referred to as the "breaker directory" or "circuit directory." It is a list that indicates which circuit each breaker controls in the electrical panel.
Siemens QP and Murray MP circuit breakers will interchange with ITE EQ-T circuit breakers as they are all compatible. However, it is always recommended to refer to the manufacturer's specifications to ensure compatibility and safety.
Only a Square D designed breaker can be installed in a Square D manufactured panel.
No, they will not work. Use only Murray breakers for safety.
To my knowledge Zinsco/Sylvania breakers are the only breakers that will fit in a Zinsco panel. My recommendation as a journeyman electrician is to have your panel changed out. Those panels are old and outdated, not to mention replacement breakers are expensive. Most newer panels, and breakers are the cost of about 2 replacements.

There are many ways one can install ge circuit breakers. One can install ge circuit breakers by turning off the power supply, removing the panel cover, testing it for power, and installing it by alining the breaker with the unused panel space.
Circuit breakers can be found in any circuit breaker panel. New circuit breakers can be bought at any shop that sells parts for installing or repairing electrical wiring circuits.
