Your panelboard will have overcurrent devices and therefore cannot be installed in locations exposed to physical damage, or in clothes closets, if residential cannot be in bathrooms. (220.24(C) & (D) & (E)
If the box contains a service disconnect & the installation is other than residential, can't be in a bathroom.230.70(A)(2)
Also, take into account working space requirements in110.34

Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example.
Could you be more specific in your question? Are you referring to how near the point of entry a service disconnect must be, or in which loctions a panel may not be permitted?
I have heard many different stories etc. No closets. No bathrooms. Not behind doors. Not close to gas water heater. clear front entrances.
I want to put it in the laundry room across from washer and dryer but there a door problem. It will come close to falling behind the back door when open.
