Suggestion for new panel/dedicated line

Hi,

I am upgrading my old Zinsco panel to Murray Electrical panel ( with copper buses) JA2040B1200SP.
My requirement is 100A , at least 32 circuit, outdoor panel.
I couldn't find any square D QO matching this requirement.
I am also doing two dedicated circuits with standard Romex 10 AWG with Oyaide R1 outlets. For now, EP 2050 & EP 2750 seems too expensive for my budget ( unless I find cheaper alternative to those).
Any other suggestions ?

While you are changing your panel go ahead and upgrade to a 150 or 200 amp service. My favorite panel is the Cutler Hammer "CH" style panel.

Well, my requirements are specifying minimum that I need. If it requires 200A service/panel, I am absolutely fine with it OR if it is panel with 40 spaces, I am good.

Another vote here for the big CH 200amp panel with copper busbars!

Mine is a CH42 series; believe it is a CH42H225L with copper busbar kit added....
