It's used in a load panel sticker that says something like "do not put more than 150 amps on one stab".
What's a "stab"?

The male (knife) blade thingie that the female part of the breaker plugs (stabs) onto.
The individual 'slot'.
Cheers
Is it one slot, or a pair of slots sharing the metal tab?
The fork finger that grabs the bus bare..
Its a BUS BAR or a BUSS BAR, dumbass.

Yes.
The correct spelling is "bus". "Buss" is a proper noun and "buss" is wrong unless you're in love.
...and if it doesn't grab the bus bare it won't work. ;-)
OHHHHH< I forgot 1 "S"
I must of been thinking of using it for the word "S*IT" head, I knew you would be drooling all over my post..
Why don't you go back to your closet and stay quiet.
Good for nothing puke.
Parasitic parasite. Malignant one at that.
Well it could be a bare assed bus bar...
I should know better than to be vague.
Is it the space one circuit breaker takes up?
Is it the metal tab that two adjacent (end-to-end, not side-to-side) breakers share?
Is it the space that those two breakers take up?
Please don't let "Michael A. Terrell" see that.
After reading his replies of an error he claimed, I made, I did think It was an error until a rethought about it..
Normally I would use BUSS and not BUS how ever, BUS is correct.
And for you jerky "Michael A. Terrell"

Yawn. Wipe it off your face and read what you wrote:
Yes, yet you won't go away. You continue to post crap, then complain when people point it out.

Ok, that's clear. The metal tab is the stab, it connects to two breakers.
Stab-Lok
That pun was grisly. ;-)
