I dunno - looks like there might be room for one more wire under there if you try really hard! Heck, ya got 60 amps to use up!

What was/were he/they thinking?

If those wires are 20Amp, you're at capacity, but, if they're 15amp circuits, there's room for one more!

Silly humans. Those are _9_ amp breakers. No overload problems at all.

What difference does it make anyway? After all that is an FPE No-Trip breaker!!

Doh!!

Why, so they blooming are! One even has the word NO engraved on it!

Those #8 TW's are bad enough.... The 4- 12AWG TW's are for the entire house.. so every outlet in the house has the potential of a 60A draw... : :

The best part is this is a rental house and the property owner didnt see this as something that needed attention... He was whining more about having no room to shove a 240V dryer circuit in this mess..

When did they allow the breakers to be on in the down position?

Randy was standing on his head again...

The rule against "upside down" breaker must be fairly recent...I've seen a number of Square D "combination" services where half of the breakers were upside-down.
