WFCO Circuit Breakers

I have a combination 30/20 amp breaker in my WFCO 8955 converter. I can't read what brand it is. It seams to be tripping quicker than it used to so I would like to replace it or carry a spare. Rather than removing it and taking it to the store to match it up, can anyone tell me what brand CB I need to buy?
  • They're fairly standard residential circuit breakers. According to the 8900 series manual from WFCO, the following brands and types are acceptable for main breakers:

    Cutler Hammer: BR and C
    Thomas Betts: TB or TBBD
    ITE/Simens: QP or QT
    Square D: HOM or HOMT
    Murray: MP-T or MH-T
    General Electric: THQL

    In addition, for non-main breakers, Cutler Hammer BRD, BD, and A types are approved.

    You may find you need to order a 30/20 combination breaker as that is not a commonly used combo breaker anywhere other than in RVs. An actual electrical supply house would be more likely to carry it than a home improvement store. If you have an empty space, or a single breaker for some other branch, it may be worthwhile to rejigger things so the main breaker is a non-duplex breaker.
