Questions and Answers for Square D Homeline 100 Amp 6-Space 12-Circuit Indoor Surface Mount Main Lug Load Center with Cover

A:  No, per NEC 110, I believe, you are unable to alter original design of "listed" and approved equipment Im not sure if Square D Homeline makes a 100a main lug interior panel with a hinged door. You may have to go with a QO or GE panel for that

A:  Hi, Yes, for the HOM612L100S, Series 001, Cover- 40558-017-02 (Replacement covers DO NOT have labels, may consider purchasing a new load center). Regards, Schneider Electric Customer Care

A:  No can not

A:  Hi, Yes,the 2 pole backfed main breaker must be installed in positions 1 and 2. The maximum backfed branch breaker ampacity that can be used is 100 amperes with catalog number HOM2100. A retaining kit, HOM1RK, must be used to secure the backfed main to the interior. If the load center would be used as service entrance equipment or as the main panel, barrier kit PKSB1HOMBF can also serve the purpose of a retaining kit. Recommended double check with your local authority before the purchase. Regards, Schneider Electric Customer Care

A:  Hi, Yes, this HOM612L100SCP handles, 2 hots, neutral and the ground bar needs to be purchased separately (PK7GTA). Suitable for use as a service equipment when service disconnect(main breaker) is installed. Regards, Schneider Electric Customer Care

A:  Yes. 2 - hots, 1 - neutral & 1 - Grd

A:  It depends on the code for your area. Mine is the later ,"four conductors grounded to main panel with no connection between neutral" and ground bars in sub panel."

A:  Robert, The branch neutral conductors should be terminated in the insulated branch neutral assembly terminals. The main neutral should not be bonded to the enclosure in a sub-panel application (i. e. the green neutral bonding screw will NOT be installed). Use a PK__GTA Ground Bar Kit for terminating the equipment ground conductors. Dependent upon the load center in use, the Ground Bar Kit may be factory included, factory installed, or require purchasing separately. NOTE: The Main Neutral Bar in a Square D load center should NEVER be cut or separated for ANY reason. Also, the Branch neutral bars connected to both the left and right side of the Main Neutral bar, should NEVER be disconnected for ANY reason. You need to run separated ground on this subpanel, because on Main Panels the ground and neutral are bonded, contact your local autority before any installation. Regards, Schneider Electric Customer Care

A:  If this subpanel goes in a separate building you will need a ground rod. If in the same building no additional ground rod is required.

A:  That will depend on the how many amps the breaker is that you are using to run to the subpanel. For instance a 50A breaker would require 8awg wire. 

A:  When I do the thing I first ask what do you all need to run if it’s just lights a 30amp 4 wire system is enough.   If you want enough for a frig, an air compressor or even a welder once in a while a 60 Amp circuit can be more than prenty.
