This might be what you were talking about. Mine Duty Circuit Breaker. Is that it?

CH is definitely a superior product in many respects and is used extensively in this area in commercial and manufacturing applications, however it seems Square D is more readily available to the home owner and small contractor in many areas where CH is not locally carried. I'm trying to think of the company from years ago that built all of their boxes with screw down breakers. Unfortunately they ran into a problem when several of their units did not trip resulting in fires and they consequently went out of business. Another nice feature was that their breakers were push to set rather than lever trip, this too might have been the cause of their problem as well. The name Bulldog comes to mind but I can't be sure.

Everyone is stuck on Square D. I think Cutler Hammer type CH is superior. Copper bus bars AND the breakers have a spring clip on the prongs where they attach to the bus bar fingers. Square D QO does not.
Do NOT get Cutler hammer type BR. That is an old design merely bough out by Cutler Hammer, not the original.
