Reserved slots in panel?
Hi,
My panel has two open breaker slots opposite of the main 100Amp breaker? At the same time my panel has a bunch of twins. Are those two spots reserved for some reason? Thanks! Aaron |

Are those two spots reserved for some reason? Remove the panel cover and see if there are open bus bar slots available. I'm thinking that those knockouts are not available circuit breaker slots. |

I did and there are slots. However, when a contractor was working on my bathroom recently, he chose to twin other breakers, rather than touch that slot. |

Call him up and ask him why he chose the twins over two new full size breakers. He may have been trying to keep that space open for a future two pole breaker. |
