No. your panel is designed for full size circuit breakers. Check the label inside the panel and it will tell you what style circuit breakers are allowed.
While this may appear to be doable - the fact remains that the interior and enclosure are tested, approved and listed by UL / FM / etc. as an entire assembly. Taking from one and replacing with another results in a combination that was not listed.
If however, the enclosures of the two panels are identical - then I suppose I would consider doing the same thing. I would be sure to change out the panel cover so that the cat number and info matches the bus.
Yes they will fit. They are both a single pole breaker. Turn the breakers over. They should look the same and snap into a single slot in the panel the same.
Not sure what you mean by No Clip? A Square D QO Breaker has a metal clip that snaps into the panel on the breaker mount and one on the Bus Bar.
Look on the label inside the door on the circuit breaker panel. It should list part numbers for acceptable breaker. The key is the part number. Bryant is now owned by Westinghouse. Murry is now owned by Siemens. While many breakers will fit in other brand panels, they are only code compliant if they are listed for that panel in which they are installed. Since names have changed go by the breaker numbers. If the breaker number you have is listed on the label then it would be ok. Breakers aren't that expensive, if you have doubt, go to your supply house that carries Siemens and buy breakers listed for your panel.
