Panel?? What Type?

Can anybody tell me what type/mfg this panel is? The home was built in 1980 and the panel had a stamp that said union made and Crouse-Hinds Company Earlysville, VA. Any help would be great!

Crouse-Hinds would have been my guess based on the main CB.

and the fact that it said so on the panel

Any known problems with that? Never heard of them!

There are no inherent issues with these panels.

Very big in commercial/industrial, great product but have not seen any of their residential construction products.

Crouse-Hinds is a very old brand used in primarily industrial locations. I think the brand is still being sold, but is owned by another company (Cooper) today. They are most noted for the cast boxes, fittings, etc. that are extremely rugged. www.crouse-hinds.com
