Charlie, that wall is clear. The panel could have gone there. Or an ouside disco could have been used. I wonder if there was a final inspection here. This was part of a large addtion renovation to the house last fall. This is in a city that is usually very thourough but I know they have been shorthanded for a while. I was there adding some receptacles to a new kitchen island. The work inside the panel is just as bad as the outside. Doubled up neutrals, no bushing on the se connector, home made two pole afci breaker.
