    Default improper handle tie on different amp breakers

    never seen different sized breakers tied together. I am guessing this is not allowed or logical?

    Neither allowed nor logical. Also, proper handle ties are required, not just 'bent copper wire'.

    I'm wondering if they meant to tie the 2-20 amp breakers together. It would still be wrong with that copper tie, but at least the breakers would match.

    Cool Re: improper handle tie on different amp breakers

    THIS is not a proper handle tie NEC 210.7(B).
