    Electrical Panel Location

    We are just in the early stages. I was asked by a friend if I would like to look at it so I did. I really like the location and want to make this work. I believe we are in a "as is" scenario and I have not had an inspection done yet.

    No crawl space under this house it is just on a slab. All wires appear to run in the ceiling and then back down along the fireplace and then into the panel.

    I did not see any K&T wiring. Anything that was visible to me looked like Romex. The panel has all circuit breakers and outside the house is a Generac back up generator wired into the main panel. My assumption is a permit was not taken out and a contractor did a cash deal.

    Yes, it is the main panel for all of the house. The house is 90+ years old. Originally built as a cottage but has been a permanent residence for over 50 years. Panel is updated with circuit breakers. Electric meter is outside.

    Electrical Panel Location

    I am looking at purchasing a small home. The electrical panel is located inside a kitchen cabinet, close to the floor and below a kitchen counter. I assume this is a huge violation for clearance. Any confirmation is greatly appreciated. Also, the electric hot water heater is located in closet...
