I had someone wire up a subpanel for an electric clothes dryer and it wasn't working. Showing low voltage error code on the dryer. Long story short, after I checked everything else I figured out it was the box he put in.
But I'm wondering if I'm right as to why it didn't work? He said it was a 'bad box' but I sort of think it was wired incorrectly but I've never used\seen this type box.
I attached a couple pictures.
The dryer is the two 30 amp breakers (there was a piece of copper connecting the breaker throws). I would think that one breaker would have to be connected to one hot and the other to the other. But both breakers are coming off of the black wire terminal on the left.
