google gemini saved my house and probably my life. during research about some new circuits i need, gemini urged me to immediately remove a specific circuit breaker from my electrical panel even though i wasn’t have an issue with this particular 60 amp breaker i’m glad i took its advice

my electric panel is by crouse-hinds, which is now owned by eaton. when i added a new 60 amp circuit 3 years ago, all sources were telling me that a specific eaton breaker was compatible with my panel. it’s been in place for THREE YEARS

i’m putting in a new heat pump at home and need three new circuits. gemini was helping me build a parts list and recommended specific siemens breakers for my panel. when i asked why not just use certain eaton breakers like i was already using, it basically threw a fit

it told me that even though the eaton breaker fit and crouse-hinds was now owned by eaton, that there was a micro gap between the breaker contacts and the panel tab which would cause micro arcing and to remove it immediately and i’ll be damned, IT WAS CORRECT!
