[ad#block]Question: On my house main panel circuit breaker switches, what does A/H master mean?
I thought it meant air handler.
But I already have A/C master on another circuit breaker switch, which means air conditioner to me.
I am remarking my panels because the original writing is fading.
Dave’s Reply:
Thanks for your electrical question Vince.
Vince, the A/H designation should indicate Air Handler, just as you mentioned.
