However as I can't see the entire mechanical arrangement of the buss bars and their connections to the SEC's I'm not 100% certain.

Is anyone here familiar with this panel?

Hello Michael,

Your assessment is correct. This is a 200 amp service with a left and right side, each side with its own 100 amp breaker.

There are a lot of these in the Chicago area. I can't remember for certain but it may be under the old Bulldog name.

Sincerely,

Corey
