Circuit Breaker Labels

Electrical rooms get chaotic fast without proper labeling. When you’re opening panels or tracing circuits during maintenance, the last thing you want is guessing which breaker controls what. Our circuit breaker labels make identification simple, compliant, and professional. These aren’t the paper sheets from hardware stores, they’re industrial grade vinyl and polyester markers made for real job sites.

Whether you’re labeling distribution panels, MCCs, or subpanels, our labels are printed to last in heat, humidity, and chemical exposure. Every set follows OSHA 1910.145 and NEC 408.4 labeling standards to keep your system compliant and easy to service.


Why professionals use our circuit breaker labels

Industrial-grade materials
Printed on laminated vinyl and polyester rated up to 180°F, these labels stay legible through electrical room heat, oil mist, and daily wipe downs.

Pre-numbered, blank, or custom-printed
Order pre-numbered sets, blank write-on labels, or upload your circuit schedule and we’ll print each breaker name or load directly onto the label.

Complies with NEC 408.4 and OSHA identification rules
Each circuit must be clearly identified by its function. Our labels meet the visibility and legibility requirements inspectors look for during audits.

Adhesive that actually holds
Designed to stick to powder-coated metal, plastic, or painted surfaces. No curling edges or adhesive failure when exposed to heat or vibration.

Fast turnaround
Proofs in one business day, shipping in three to five. We also keep your templates on file for future reorders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do these meet NEC 408.4 labeling rules?

Yes. NEC 408.4 requires each circuit to be identified by its function, not just numbered. These labels use permanent print and clear text so every breaker is traceable during inspection or maintenance.

Can I upload my circuit schedule instead of typing everything out?

Yes. Most electricians and contractors send a spreadsheet with circuit numbers and load descriptions. We’ll match each number to its label and send a proof for review before printing.

Will these hold up in hot electrical rooms or near switchgear?

They will. The laminated film handles temperatures up to 180 degrees and resists curling and fading, even when installed on warm enclosures or gear that runs all day.

Can you print breaker handle wraps or identification strips?

Yes. We make thin, flexible labels that wrap around molded case breaker handles without adding thickness under the cover. You can send your breaker model or a measurement and we’ll cut them to fit.

Do these stick to older painted or powder coated panels?

Yes. The adhesive bonds to powder coat, baked enamel, and lightly textured finishes. Just clean the surface with isopropyl alcohol before applying for best results.

Can I order color coded sets for voltage or phase?

Yes. Many facilities use color coding. Red for 480 volt, blue for 120 volt, yellow for 277 volt, and green for equipment ground circuits. We can match your existing standard or create one with you.

Do inspectors actually check these labels?

They do. Inspectors often call out missing or faded circuit IDs during safety audits. Clear printed labels prevent downtime and show that your system is properly documented.

Can you print bilingual or multilingual layouts?

Yes. English and Spanish are most common but we can print any language combination. Bilingual labeling is standard in mixed workforce environments and large facilities.
