Ummmm, OK, but remember I can't guarantee that the screws are captive in the
breakers in your panel, just that all the ones I used years ago were. Nor
that the breaker won't fall apart in your hand. I'm REALLY not a fan of
that product.
I'm not an electrician and I don't play one on TV - I've never even stayed
at a Holiday Inn Express. I've just had to do lots of electrical work.
