Found in a bathroom of a 1920's house in East Los Angeles... Installed by the homeowners "friend"..... Fed from a 35A "multibreaker" The cloth wire attached to the ground bus & exiting the screw hole in the back of the can goes under the house & "wraps" around a steel water line ************************************************** ****** The burn marks were caused by a torch when the wires were soldered. This equipment was found in Nebraska in a refrigerator that served as the cabinet for this "Home Made" Panelboard! And, as if this wasn't bad 'nuff, the seller is a Journeyman Electrician! This great little loadcenter was the supply for an above ground spa. It was mounted about 18" above the ground in a flowerbed, where it was watered regularly. The cover was nowhere to be found. ![]() This was what was running the sprinkler system until about a week before they put the house on the market. ![]() ![]() ![]()

These images are on the old board and I did not write the part about the electrician.
I believe Harvey was the Inspector on this job. |

I can't believe that guy "made" his own panel, he should have made a casket for himself while he was at it.

Joe- feel free to add this one to your trophy case As always All photos I post are free to be used by any member NACHI. Main Panel transformed to a junction box as I called it out as a safety hazard (wet location, improperly supported)- this was the "repair" made by an electrician.
