Electrical Panel – Closed Cover
Wide shot of the load center with the deadfront closed. Captures how the panel is mounted and the clear working space around it, which is relevant when planning where to route the new feeder conduit for the detached garage.
Observations
- Panel is inset into plywood backer board anchored to basement wall (CMU foundation with spray-foam coating).
- Adjacent equipment includes structured wiring enclosure and conduit stub for existing circuits.
- Purple Cat6/data cable and yellow NM cable show current routing pathways—useful reference for planning new conduit penetrations.
- Interlock-style service disconnect switch pictured to the right of the panel door.
- Work area appears to meet NEC required 30” width clearance, leaving room to mount new conduit bodies or disconnects.
Planning Notes
- Photo confirms where to land 200A-rated feeder conductors before stepping down to 100A breaker for garage.
- Shows available space on plywood backer to mount sub-feed conduit, disconnect, or surge protective device.
- Useful for sharing with electrician during remote planning sessions to avoid site visit just to assess existing conditions.
