Default need help to Identify

I am unable to find any labeling on the panel. I believe it is a Federal Pacific, Stab-lok. I don't think it is the spring loaded bus bar type. I have called it out to be looked at by an electrician. I would like to know if this is the type that is more pron to failure.


Thanks for any help on this

Barry is correct - not only is it FPE, it's also a Stab-lok brand. . .
