Robert Jones Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Home built in the early 60's. Service panel has obviously been upgraded since it was built. The panel does not resemble the one's I typically see installed with Stab-Lok breakers. Definitely not an FPE panel. It looks as though whoever did the updating just reused the Stab-Lok breakers. So my question is, do the breakers without the FPE panel still present the same safety issue? Would you call the Stab-Lok breakers for replacement?

Ken Meyer Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 At the bottom right part of the label it says Federal Pacific Electric Company, I think it's just a different type of FPE panel than you are used to seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Kibbel Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 I've occasionally come across the same panel. While it is a bit different layout from the more common older model, it's still a Stab-Lok by FPE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Jones Posted May 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Thanks guys. Ken, I was having a moment and didn't even notice the FPE reference at the bottom.[:-paperba[:-paperba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
