Description
The Eaton 200A breaker panel with the deadfront cover open, now showing breakers installed in the lower portion of the panel. Several breakers are populated — these serve the circuits SLS Electric has wired (GFCI outlets, soffit light circuit, etc.). The 200A main breaker is visible at bottom center with the Eaton blue/red identification label. Most breaker spaces remain empty, providing ample capacity for future DIY branch circuits (perimeter outlets, workbench runs, 240V circuits, lighting, etc.). Circuit directory card visible at right side. This is a significant update from the earlier photo today which showed the panel before breaker installation.
