200 Amp 42-Space Indoor Load Center with Main Breaker

Ok, so as an electrician its hard to change your game up. If it a broke why fix it. Well it got broke!!! My dad was a Square D man which made me a Square D man. Sqaure D has been a proven panel for countless years. Covid has impacted so many industries across the board including panel manufacturers. It has been so hard to get so many parts including our beloved Square D. So we had to look for another solution. Customers have to have their power no matter what. We gave Leviton a shot. All I can saw us WOW!!! This load center has so many features and safety benefits I dont know where to begin. There is so much room to work with in the panel and looks so sleek. It has smart breaker capability and we have figured out a way to test every circuit in a house that has an arcing condition with this panels technology. Great job Leviton on such an amazing design. And to all you electricians who are like me that are set in your ways. This is something your going to want to start installing.

I recently bought a house and upgraded from a smaller panel to this massive 42 space load center and couldnt be happier. My only complaint would be the smart Functionality requires a $200 hub and $60-$90 each smart breaker. I also bought the optional observation window and really like the look of it. Landing the neturals with the hot make things really easy to upgrade breakers in the future for smart AFCI / GFCI.

This load center is a century ahead of older panels. Panels have not changed much. The biggest change was in the 40's and 50' changing from fuses to breakers (which could be reset). However, since then they have been quite the same. A main breaker with two phase lugs and bars for breakers, and a neutral/or ground bus bar to add in all your neutrals and ground wires. Breakers are added and you attach all the black or red legs of a circuit to the breakers themselves. What has changed? Well, over the years, newer breaker technology was introduced: first was GFI breakers. It protected the entire circuit rather than a point-of-use GFI outlet. Then new AFI breakers came out. Still later combo GFI/AFI breakers. Of course, nowadays we are seeing smart home devices. Leviton offers standard, AFI, GFI, and AFI/GFI combo breakers. Better yet, you can get all of those as either dumb or smart versions. Here's the best part - the breakers are plug and play. There are no terminals on the breakers. There is both a hot and neutral terminal for each slot. This also means that there are no neutral pigtails on the breakers cluttering up the gutters and fighting for room in the panel. Better yet, you can install a standard breaker, and later, just pop it out and put in a GFI or combo as an upgrade. If you buy smart breakers, they sell a smart hub that goes inside the panel (all self contained). Another great thing about this panel is it is complete. Other than breakers which depends on your situation, everything is included in the box. Many panels, every internal component is extra. This particular panel contained the main breaker, lugs, grounding strap, neutral/ground bars, and lug covers. NOTE: The instructions, the description and even the Leviton rep stated the solid cover was sold separately and not included. THIS IS NOT THE CASE! I order the $52 solid door. Included in this particular box, was the solid panel door. Thus, I returned the solid door I thought I needed. I have reported this to the vendor and HD. Accessories you can get for this panel: replacement parts for most of the included parts. In addition, they have the smart hub, metering clamps for the smart hub (for measuring use), door and breaker locks, an interlock for a generator used in top right slot, and filler plates. They also have a panel door with a window if you would like to admire your breakers (as opposed to a solid door). HD has this too. Awesome! Jeff

Home Depot does not sell the Observation Window door. You will need to buy it from a local electrical supplier.

Leviton Power box is the ONLY one I usually install. I bought the box and needed 13 - 220 20amp breakers but Home Depot only had 3 so I was forced to return the box and use a less desirable one.

I bought this because it allow you to wire in the house, without the breakers. That is super convenient when you are using the new GFCI and now the AFCI breakers. Since I intend to use combo GFCI/AFCI breakers for all my circuits, it saves a lot of ugly wiring, and is faster to install. I also like the white box and cover and the white breakers, looks more up to date.1pass

Very well designed box

Best panel ever!!! It went together smooth and can just pop in breakers when ready If you have to change breakers no problem pull out snap a new one in all done
