==Manufacturer differences== Despite the adoption of a standard [[DIN rail]] for mounting and a standard cut-out shape for seemingly interchangeable breakers, the positions of busbar connections and other features are not standardized. Each manufacturer has one or more "systems", or kinds of breaker panels, that is only fully compatible with breakers of that type. These assemblies have been tested and approved for use by a recognized authority. Replacing or adding equipment which "just happens to fit" can result in unexpected or even dangerous conditions. Such installations should not be done without first consulting knowledgeable sources, including manufacturers' datasheets.
