This GC loves doing his own work on this commercial property in the basement. I had to stand on the plastic cover of the sump pump in order to access this panel. It was nice to know he was the vice-president of the local homebuilders association at the time.

One of my favorites. Home owner insisted there wasn't a panel in the kitchen.

Nice one Chris. I have to find my photos of a main panel inside the kitchen cabinets. They had to keep the cover off and remove cans and shelves in order to get to it. It was owned by a judge.
