Texture Spray in Sub Panel

Seem to remember that Texture Spray in Sub Panel is a no-no…

Just wondering what your opinion is, and how you would word it in your report.

“Gaps in corrosion inhibitor in panel” :wink:

I would state “Texture overspray in panel, safty issue, need to have an licened electrican eveluate”
Outher than that, this has potential to be a real problem later for the owner!

I wouldn’t go overboard about how unsafe this is. That stuff has a toxicity limit in a fire similar to all that insulation in the box. The issue is just that the code says there should be no foreign substances in electrical enclosures. I see it a lot in half to 3/4 million dollar houses here. I am not sure what standard the AHJ holds them to but he is holding his nose with the other hand.

… It might cause more problems “fixing” this than just leaving it alone

No foreign substances in panel including paint, texture, ect.
In need or repair.

Is this missing a main disconnect?
