Subject:Re: Westfalia Shore Power Ground Bonding Minutia: Breaker Box
From:Neil N <musomuso@GMAIL.COM>

Thanks. Local smaller town electrical box type choices are limited so we'll
see what happens. I have an "electrical code simplified" book that shows
box fill limits, which is handy. With a new box I'll have to transfer the
breaker mount bracket braces from corners of old box to the new box. I
might order another new breaker with screw terminals but we'll see.

Neil.
