I need to replace two AFCI breakers on our main circuit panel.
I have replaced and added breakers to our sub-panel several years ago. When I did so, it was convenient to leave that panel unpowered for more than a few minutes, so I was able to take an existing Murray breaker with me to ensure I purchased an exact replacement and compatible additions.
I understand Murray is no longer manufactured, so I have to look for a compatible Siemens or other manufacturer’s breaker.
I have downloaded the Siemens cross-reference guide (Murray Connect - https://www.siemens.com/us/en/products/energy/low-voltage/murray.html), but none of the visible markings exactly align with their table.
I can pull the breakers if necessary to find more information or bring them with me, but it would be much, much better (especially on a holiday week) if I can order ahead for pickup so that I have the ostensibly correct breakers on hand when I power down.
Is there enough information in the photographs to tell? Even narrowing it to a choice between one or two models would be helpful (I can get both and return the unused one later in the day).
Thanks!

- TL;DR
- I cannot be sure whether information on the face of the panel and breakers is enough to purchase the correct replacements.
