In this post:
Two options are presented for wiring the SPD. Regardless of the option chosen, what is the preferred way to do the physical wiring? As the SPD is wired in parallel, I see several options to avoid double tapping the breaker:
1. Tap splice (This seems cheap)
2. Double lug
3. Another busbar (May not be possible in a given enclosure)
4. Pigtail
For sake of argument, let's say we are dealing with 10 AWG and a 20A breaker.
Any thoughts?
