why ganged breakers?
In preping house to sell was running dedicated circuit to bathroom for
gfi socket as bathroom had no socket only only light switch. discovered that all upstairs (bathroom and 3 bedrooms) were on 2 (two) 20 amp breakers that were ganged. Also found the old wiring was 14 gage. I will of course be replacing the breakers with 15 amp breakers. Anyone have any idea why the breakers were ganged and when replaced must I also use ganged 15s or just one for each of the two circuits? |
