I was wondering if there is any code preventing more than one wire out of a
panel breaker.
The reason is attempting to install a surge surpressor on existing lines.

If you can do it, use a whole house surge supressor that uses an existing slot.

But I would imagine two circuits out of any breaker is not to code

I just found out the breaker specs seem to determine how many wires can attach
and what size. That could still violate some codes.
