sparky66wv - Do you have all of the branch circuit breakers needed for this panel? If not the cost of the QO breakers will probably cost you more than the cost of a new GE loadcenter and circuit breakers. I think I remember you saying that you were a GE man. If the circuit breakers need to be QO then this won't work. I think you would be better off eating the cost of a new panel yourself if you figure out all of the time its going to take you to get this old panel to work. I try to never use "used" electrical equipment because it always comes back and haunts me later. I have worked on major remodel projects that require moving electrical panels that were recently installed and I always tell the owners that it will cost them more for me to reuse an old panel then to install a new one.
