I've got a 30 amp double pole "Challenger" circuit breaker and need to replace it. What are the chances of a different brand replacing it? The reason I ask is on the box it says to replace with the same brand and once in my past I went with the same brand (different house). Also if I priced it right on the web, I see the same "Challenger" breaker (I think???) costing around $16.00 while a different brand but same type in a local Home Depot cost about half as much. Is there a difference in quality and assuming it fits, will it be as safe / good? Advice ???
