JUst wanna make sure I am doing this right.

On the breaker:
there is a white pigtail for the neutral bar. Also a neutral lug for line hookup.

My wire only has 2 hots and ground.


So I just ignore the lug and hook the pigtail to the neutral bar?

Then
Hook up the two hots to the breaker and ground wire to ground.

And all is protected?

Breakers are hot wire

Bus bars are are neutral/ground

If you have 2 hots it is 220


Not really sure what you are asking

Thanks, seems to work. The test button trips it out so I'll assume I'm good

Is this a 2 pole breaker?
