They are????

Bought some at Grainger the other day.

Just because someone is selling them doesn't mean they meet building codes. (esp. for residential use.) None of the dozen or so licensed electricians I've ever talked to will use them.

None of my local Lowes stock anything you'd use in a home. (60A breakers?) [of course, their website does lie.] And some of those available online are not UL listed.

I know the one's I've seen installed (circa 1980) were delisted -- GE sent notice to the electricians that installed them.
