Can A Burnt Hot Bus Bar Be Replaced In A Magnetek Power Center

Question:

Our bar that the breakers lock into is burnt. Do we need a new box or can we just replace the bar?

You can technically replace the bus bar but if it arced there's a good chance that there's more damage to your power center than you know and you'd be risking it happening again or it just constantly blowing circuits. My recommendation is to replace the entire power center.

The Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger - 45 Amp # PD4045KA would be a perfect replacement for your Magnetek 6332 Power Center and would give you extra circuit breaker and fuse ports to wire in additional electrical components.
