[QUOTE="Craig Hauber, post: 84324, member: 272"] Re: Just when you thought you saw the worst.... That looks like #6 (at best) between the breaker and the tails. Is that big enough for 100A? I'm thinking that breaker should be closer to a 60A one for that size? In the old days I used to always carry a tie-in kit and I had a bunch of breakers, knock-out plugs and cable hole-clamps, I would at least try to get questionable shit hidden inside a closed panel when done. I would also band together 3 #8 lines into lug holes in the neutral bar instead of splicing it like they did. (I wanted the panel looking untouched when I left -other than the occasional new shiny knock-out hole plug) I also left a trail of properly installed 60A range plugs at many of my regular venues (-although I've heard somewhere that a range plug not in a place where there's an actual range isn't code either.)
