XPCP description says: "This signal bridge installed at the breaker box will provide a clear X10 path from one "leg" to the other."
However, it goes on to say "Fits in a single-gang box".
Breaker panels do not have a single-gang box. How, exactly is this to be installed?

Install a single-gang box adjacent to the panel, and feed through a 2-pole 240V 15A breaker in the panel.

Well I just bought an XPCP and will see if that fixes it, I am guessing it will................distance don't seem to be an issue, just that stange one plug here, one plug there will work, like the light on one side of my front door will work, but the light on the other side won't.  :-\

Am curious if Idbl_fanatic has had a positive experience after installing the XPCP unit?
