My stove/range circuit breaker is two breakers tied together, each beside a 40 on the breaker handle, does this close-fisted each is a 20 amp next to 40 amps total, or two 40s so 80 amps total? Thanks
Answers: Each half is a 40 amp circuit breaker. At 240 volts you enjoy 40 amps. Each half beside a neutral would be 40 amps. No concern how you look at it, it is 40 amps.
the total ampere is 40 amps at 240 volts
