I need a I.T.E. 3 pole feed thru breaker, minimum of 30 amps, and I went to
the local electrical supply and the said they don't really make them anymore
so he came up with a concoction of a breaker with lugs on one end and tabs
on the other with lugs that slide over the tabs and some mounting bracket
and after all that it was going to be about $150.00 and I don't want to
spend that much. I have tried looking on the internet without much luck. If
anybody can help me out please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you need a MCB (Molded Case Circuit Breaker). The have lugs on
both line and load ends
All breaker manufacturers make them.

If your looking for lugs on the line and load then all you need is look at
the 100 amp frame size, ( what ever that is in ITE )

http://www.breakerbroker.com/bolon12to24.html

This page shows a picture of a breaker rated at 240 volts You could put
lugs on one side.

If your dealing with greater than 240 v then plan on spending a lot of money
on a new breaker.
