Saw this yesterday. I have never seen this name on a panel before. Anyone else seen these?

I saw one like that a few years ago, same issue, should be replaced.

FPE used several names over the years. Federal Pioneer (in Canada, I think), Stab-Lok, NoArc, all sorts of different names. Like Bruce said, still pretty much the same design.

Here is a link to a really good pictorial guide to Federal panels that I found on Inspectapedia. Federal NOARK electric panels: How to Identify Recognize Federal Pacific Electric FPE Stab Lok Stablok Stab-lok circuit breakers and electrical panels - Product Identification photos and advice (http://www.inspectapedia.com/fpe/FPE_Panel_ID2.htm) Take a look and see what you think.

Did Federal Pacific make any panels that do not need replacing?

Only the ones that the houses have burned down because of them!
