Light Archon Mainstay 200A Plug-On Neutral Load Center

Light Archon Mainstay load centers anchor 200A services with a plug-on neutral bus and the space counts bigger houses actually need: 30-space and 40-space configurations indoor and outdoor, value packs with branch breaker assortments, surge-device versions, and a compact 8-space outdoor unit with feed-through lugs for downstream panels. Quote-first: the trade desk confirms the configuration and breaker schedule before release.

The fully distributed neutral bar means combination arc fault breakers plug on at any space, with no pigtail management per the published listing. Straight-in mains save cable, the cover self-adjusts for flush finishes on indoor units, and the interior rotates for overhead or underground feed. Ground and neutral bars accept up to three 10-14 equipment grounds per termination, and the distributed split branch neutral carries up to half again more terminals than the baseline standard requires per the published listing. The rep-verified interrupt rating is 22 kA, confirmed per configuration at quote review.
