Please forgive my terminology, I am trying to install a hot tub I have a separate (ready to install) spa panel near the tub that contains a
50 amp GFCI to which I am trying to connect to my main panel (a Cutler Hammer with 8 breakers inside) all the spaces are full and here is the inventory: 2 one inch 50amp for the stove, 2 one inch 45 amp for the AC, 2 one inch 30 amp which are for the water heater, 2 one inch 60 amp which are for the sub panel 2 one inch 30 amp for the dryer 2 one inch 60 amp for the furnace. Each pair is "connected" via a bar over the switches, I attempted to replace the 2 30amp one inch breakers with a single one inch breaker with 2 switches. It worked but the dryer would not heat. The sub panel is too far away to run a line from it to the spa. I would rather not replace the panel if there is a way around it. Please help if you can Cheers Gil gil @ austin. rr .com- posted
