Regarding the splice blocks in the CH remodel panels, I've wondered, is there any reason you couldn't mount a terminal strip in someone else's panel and accomplish the same thing?

Unfortuantly, there isn't a 200A QO combo. Although, while I was at Lowe's the other day, they had a combo mounted above the "QO" display. It was a HOM, though.

Lostazhell - Thanks.

My catalog lists ringless QO combos number QC2442M200C and QC2442M200CH. They don't show any ring-type QO combos, though.

They also have both ring and ringless QO meter-mains, if that will work for you.

Need one with a ring.

I really don't want to seperate the meter from the panel, for quite a few reasons.

I've poured over all the catalogs. The CH is about the best choice, but not at $850.

Thanks, though.

Well, I called Eaton again, and asked for more names/numbers...

Called Winlectric in Utah. Real common product for them... Local EC's use it. $309. Talked about shipping options. He was willing to crate it, if I wanted.

Just a plug for them... Dan Abbott. Nice guy. (435) 628-1680

Thanks for everybody's suggestions.

You should also consider the warranty that comes with a CH panel. For residential use, the main is warranted for 15 or 20 years and the branch breakers are lifetime (barring flood damage & lightning strikes).


Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example.

Just to keep the thread on-track (more or less)... lol...

I was looking for an all-in-one (aka, combo)... There is no 200A QO all-in-one with a ring.
