Why are reconditioned circuit breakers so dangerous?
Molded case circuit breakers are not designated for repairs. And while some “Recycling groups” will tell you that they have high standards on their reconditioning techniques, there is no safe and reliable way to recondition a circuit breaker. Furthermore, with reconditioned circuit breakers you never know where your circuit breaker has been, or where it has come from and there are no safety nets in place to ensure that the breaker you buy has previously been taken care of or that it has been reconditioned by a legitimate Factory Authorized Service Center. NABCO chooses not to tamper in any way with the breakers you buy from us. While the price of reconditioned breakers may be appealing, the concern and liability will far outweigh the money you and your customer will save. Save yourself a piece of mind and buy ‘New Only’ from NABCO.
