Trying to connect a 50 amp inlet box to my Siemens outdoor combination panel 200 amp cutoffs. Can’t figure out where to insert the 50 amp breaker since the 200 amp breakers appear to cover the whole panel. The panel has two 200 amp breakers, but want to connect it to just one of the panel breakers. Thanks.

My opinion is to install a different panel that has enough spaces to install a 50 amp breaker. What you have is a 200 amp breaker that accepts the power coming in and a different 200 amp breaker to probably feed another panel. My panel has a 200 amp main breaker outside and I installed feed through lugs to power up my panel inside my home.
