There are some exceptions to this rule.......but for basic understanding yes..6' 7" is the highest breaker handle height most HI's will be concerned with.

Paul, this was a fourplex with two panels high, meters and gutter in the middle, and tow panels low. One of those exceptions wouldnt be related to that would it?
