![]() ![]() It's always best to check the voltage source at the breaker before attaching the wires to make sure of your voltage. This means that one side of the twin breaker will connect to one of the busses of the panel and the other will side of the breaker will connect with the other buss of the panel which would produce 240 volts. The Zinsco R38-20 breaker should provide 240 volts if the connections on the bottom of the breaker are staggered where they will come into connection with the opposite busses in the panel. Hi Tim - Great Electrical Repair Question! ![]() this would make a difference, Right? Thanks- Tim N. I am thinking its not an actual 2 pole breaker, but a twin single pole. ![]() I am starting to wonder if the breaker is wrong. Inside the panel I connected the bare copper wire to the ground bar and the white and black to the breaker.Īfter hooking everything up and turning on the tanning bed, one side of the breaker trips after about 10 seconds. The R series matches the other skinny breakers already being used. I was able to find the breakers online and purchased a R38-20 (2 X 1Pole 20Amp 120/240V breaker). From my somewhat limited knowledge, I assumed I need a 2 pole 20 amp breaker. It requires a 6-20R outlet and a dedicated 20 amp circuit. According to the instructions, It operates from a 220 AC source. ![]()
