The load side of a panel refers to the section where the circuit breakers are connected to distribute electrical power to various devices and appliances within a building. It is where the electrical load is connected after passing through the circuit breakers for distribution.

Why are two ground bars required in a breaker box?

They are not required in a breaker box. NEC code requires that you have one 8' ground rod outside under the meter and another 8' ground rod around 6' to either side. Reason is safety.There are two ground bars in a distribution panel because the feeders to the load can come out of each side of the panel. The bar on the right side of the panel services the feeders that leave the right side of the panel. The bar on the left side of the panel services the feeders that leave the left side of the panel. This saves congestion of ground wires passing from one side of the panel to the other side, which is what would happen if just one ground bar was installed.


Can you read 120 volts line to neutral even with a severed neutral?

It depends on what side of the break that you are reading from. On the neutral load side of the break there will be no reading. On the panel neutral side of the break you will get a reading.


Can you run 30a per phase on a 100a panel?

No, you should not load a panel beyond its rated capacity. In this case, a 30A load per phase in a 100A panel would exceed its capacity and could cause overheating or other safety hazards. It's important to properly size the panel based on the expected load requirements.


What should an electrical panel rating be?

Depends on the load. Most residential homes require at the very least a 200 amp service panel.


How many circuits are on a 150 amp panel?

As many as needed; panel capacities are different from each other in amps and space. there should be a sticker on the door of the panel that tells of how many breakers can be installed in that panel. regarding the amps, a load calculation can be made to determine the full load used on such a panel.

Can you have two different size load wires that is unprotected on a transformers load side?

It is not a recommended practice. The secondary side of the transformer should go to a distribution panel where breakers can be used to protect the different wire sizes and load currents.


Should wires come in the top of a panel box?

They can come in the top or bottom whichever is the best. <<>> If the distribution panel is a load center (no Main disconnect) the above statement is true. If the distribution panel is a combination panel (main disconnect at top of panel) then the load feeds can only be brought in the two sides and the bottom. A combination panel has an internal barrier to separate the main disconnect from the load side of the distribution board.

What measured load can you put on an electrical panel?

If you have a measured continuous load of say 80 Amps, you would want to have a panel rated at 100 A. For continuous load you want to be at 80% of rated capacity.

How do you calculate the load for a dc panel board?

Summation of individual load connected on the board gives the total load. Power (Load ) = Voltage x rated current.
