New Load Center

I'm going to be replacing my old 200amp load center with a new one. Was wondering what brand I should get. Looking more for brand longevity, so if I need a new breaker 20 years from now, more than likely I can still find breakers.

Siemens (not sure I spelled it correctly) makes a very good 200 amp load center.

Make sure you get the one with the copper bus.

It will use a lot of brands of circuit breakers.

Best regards,

Dave
