RMC List - Seeking Power Convertible top circuit breaker

[Rob Brereton]

Thanks Jon.  That matches the part Clarks shows as the "usable" option, and
the parts on the left in Tony's picture.

I will grab one if I need to but want to avoid extra holes and go original
style if possible.  I am looking to get together with Tony and look at the
one on the right which is the original form and fits the existing holes.

Thanks,
Rob
