Most of the breakers I pull up with this number are "bolt in". I do see some that look like they are maybe for a different type panel or something, but do not look like they will fit in the panel I am talking about. Seems like there are 2 different breakers with the same number..

On the traugh, it's 10ft. with 5 meters coming out of it now. I scheduled a meeting with the power company to come and take a look at what I got. Looks like I may have just enough room in between the underground pvc feed and the next disconnect to get a 200 amp breaker enclosure in, then I will have to 90 out of the side of it and go back up through the bottom and top of the traugh for the feed to the subpanel. There is no room anywhere to go around the traugh. I barely got 13" to get the 3 phase meter in, if the inspector says I can do it that way. Seems to be the only way is to put a separate meter for the Freezer/Cooler units. I also scheduled a meeting on Tuesday for the inspector to come out. One good note, the power company will make the connections in the traugh if I can do it that way. I'll try to let you know after Tuesday...

Yes it is a bolt in. It can be installed only in a 300-400amp panel with a kit (PK3CA)... Take a look at the Spec Data under 22000 AIC in this link...

This probably won’t work for you…
