Q:I’ve got a square drive screwdriver and no amount of twisting, either CW or CCW, will break the screw free. I understand it is cemented in, just how much torque is required to free it??? I’m afraid if I apply any more and I will break something!! And I’m 6’4” and weigh 240 lbs.

A:  That is the lug screw, not a calibration screw. From the factory it's firmly seated. Use a #2 square bit or 1/4 flat blade screwdriver. Phillips and torx won't fit. A quick twist should pop it loose.

    A:  If you are trying to break the calibration screw free you will not be able to. It is not design to be used after final calibration.

        Answer This Question

        A:  Use a 1/4 flat/straight screwdriver or #2 square/recess bit. Phillips & torx bits won't fit. Give it a quick twist as it's seated firmly from the factory. That is the lug, not a calibration screw.

        by|Nov 17, 2023

          A:  That screw is called a calibration screw and is used to calibrate the correct amperage during the manufacturing process and cemented in placed. The only screw that should be used is the wire screw at the end of the breaker. Thanks for the question.

                A:  I can't swear it will fit your exact panel, but compare the orientation of the contacts to your panel or existing breaker. They did fit our mid 60's 100Amp panel.
