Most residential breakers are 15 amp and you need to match the wire size with your breaker. Square D and GE are well accepted brand names. You also will need a main panel so be sure the panel accepts the brand of breaker you select, they are not universal. Wire sizes, gauges, for breakers (http://www.greatinspector.com/faq-elec-wiresize.html)
