    How do I connect wires to a 40/40/40/40amp 240v breaker
    I have a 240v , 40/40/40/40 Quad breaker. It has the 2 center switches connected as a pole, and the 2 outside connected as a pole.
    My guess was to connect a red and black wire from one appliance to the 2 outside switches and a red and black from the other appliance to the center 2 switches. Is this correct?
    Thank You Rick
