Load center with plug in neutral connections
View Patent ↗A load center with a circuit breaker with a first recess and a second recess, a main busbar with a first stab that is operatively arranged to insert into the first recess and support a front end of the circuit breaker. The load center also includes a neutral support bar having a second stab and a lug. The lug is connected to a neutral system and the second stab is operatively arranged to insert into the second recess of the circuit breaker. The second stab also supports a back end of the circuit breaker.
1. A load center, comprising:
a circuit breaker having a first recess and a second recess;
a main busbar having a first stab that is operatively arranged to be inserted into said first recess and said first stab supports a front end of said circuit breaker; and
a neutral support bar having a second stab and a lug, wherein said lug is connected to a neutral system and said second stab is operatively arranged to be inserted into said second recess, and said second stab supports a back end of said circuit breaker.
2. The load center of claim 1 , wherein said second stab extends from said neutral support bar.
3. The load center of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of second stabs, wherein said plurality of second stabs extend from said neutral support bar and all of said second stabs are on the same plane.
4. The load center of claim 1 , wherein said second recess extends to the perimeter edge of said circuit breaker.
5. The load center of claim 1 , wherein said neutral support bar and said second stab conduct electricity.
6. The load center of claim 1 , wherein said second recess is disposed proximate the base of said circuit breaker.
7. The load center of claim 1 , wherein said circuit breaker has a neutral line running directly into said circuit breaker.
8. The load center of claim 7 , wherein said neutral line in hardwired into said circuit breaker.
9. A neutral support bar for a load center, comprising:
a linear bar having a plurality of stabs, a main lug and a plurality of smaller lugs, wherein said linear bar, said plurality of stabs, said main lug and said plurality of smaller lugs conduct electricity, said main lug is connectable to neutral system, each of said plurality of smaller lugs are connectable to a neutral line, said plurality of stabs extend from said linear bar, and said plurality of stabs are operatively arranged to be inserted into a circuit breaker and support one end of the circuit breaker.
10. The support bar of claim 9 , wherein each of said plurality of stabs insert into an individual circuit breakers and each of said plurality of stabs support a neutral side of the individual circuit breaker.
11. The support bar of claim 9 , further comprising at least one fastener disposed on said smaller lugs, wherein said fastener is arranged to fasten said neutral lines inside said recesses.
