6 thhn8/19/2023 Those are alien breakers in this panel, and they must go, presuming this is a GE panel. Three of your breakers look like Siemens, Murray or ITE. However, those forbidden spaces can be used for a generator interlock, if you had any thoughts to that. You won't be able to have any breakers across from the main breaker because the stabs can only carry 125A, and the main will absorb it all. At that point you will hit stab limits on the stabs that the main breaker is clamped to i.e. You will need the 2 spaces if you upsize the main panel's main breaker to 125A, but then, you'll also need a 60A feed breaker at that point. You can just grab the subfeed lugs at the top of the panel. Since your main is the same rating as your subpanel feeder, you don't actually need a feed breaker in the main panel. I gather your breaker in the upper left corner of the main panel, yes? Your breaker is back-fed, and is 60A. Any reason to stick with 8 AWG? The ground wire will support the 60 AMP panel plus two separate 15AMP circuits in the same conduit (or one 20AMP circuit instead). Ground wire: Currently, I have 8 AWG but I am thinking using 10 AWG instead.I guess, an alternative might be to use the right and left neutral bar for neutral and ground by disconnecting them but that creates problems with pigtails of afci breakers. All looks good? I don't like that there is not a lot of space around the ground bar. ![]()
