looked through my collection and found over a dozen breaker
plates...only one with the little tab. In little clear plastic bags, I
have the little balls and the screws and other distributor stuff...but
no little tabs. Where'd they go?<br></div><div id="yiv0238549425yui_3_7_2_41_1380924440655_81" style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:18.6667px;font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;background-color:transparent;font-style:normal;"> I HAVE TO do a better inventory of my used parts. I wouldn't have tossed them...but I have at least one tab for emergency.</div><div id="yiv0238549425yui_3_7_2_41_1380924440655_87" style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:18.6667px;font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;background-color:transparent;font-style:normal;"><br id="yiv0238549425yui_3_7_2_41_1380924440655_92"></div><div id="yiv0238549425yui_3_7_2_41_1380924440655_89" style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:18.6667px;font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;background-color:transparent;font-style:normal;">No...I don't put much pressure on the tab when installing the plates...just the non-pushing weight of my thumb.</div><div

Some of the plates have a shallow divot worn into the metal where that little ball is
supposed to move back and forth. Divot must impede that action. Is
this a trashed plate, or can careful grinding-filing, with very
fine-grit implements, set it straight? I've filed and sanded that divot out of the way in the past...but don't have any memory of how well that went over time.</div></div></div></div></body></html>
