Default skinny Federal Pacific breakers

search FPE STAB LOCK to learn more than you ever want to know........

Haller, you need to separate FACT from HYSTERIA, instead you just promote
HYSTERIA. Do you really believe that if ALL FPE panels and breakers were
death traps, as you advocate, that they wouldn't have been recalled or at
least outlawed by municipalities. Do you really believe that they would
STILL be selling U.L. listed breakers, if they had a propensity to burst
into flames. Use a little common sense


the breakers dont burst into flames, they just often fail to trip
under a short, and once a FPE stab lock breaker trips once its much
less likely to EVER trip again.............


Again, that applied to a _SPECIFIC_ group of FPE Stablok breakers, not
all FPE breakers (and not even all of the Stablok form factor).
