If there is nothing wrong electrically, then it all comes down to cost. Ask yourself:


  • How often are the breakers needing replacing?
  • How many times will it need to be done over the next 10 years?
  • What it will it cost over the next ten years?
  • What will it cost to re-wire the circuits to switches or a contactor?


For your part number, just HID i.e. QO120HID. I do not think that switching (no pundt intended) to HID breakers will cure your problem. What is the deciding factor that tells you the breakers need replacing? How often are the breakers needing replacing?
