...I might even argue two smaller breakers in parallel are better than a single. If the first breaker trips the second will go right behind it because you have instantly doubled the load.
I'd love to hear from an experienced EE that had any design experience to see if he/she agreed with that.
Of course if either breaker trips with say 55% of the desired trip load the other breaker will trip... so if you want 60 Amp protection and have a 33 amp draw, one breaker trips and the second follows. (Or are you insisting that each breaker will always carry half the load?)
I'd lovge to hear an input from a licensed Electrician id no EEs are out there.
