This is at an International Airport here, support buildings. This is one of four 1200A 208y/120 mains in this electrical room.

That and a chicken house! I do not know why they always put the panels, timers and contactors inside. The ammonia just eats them up. And the chickens always want to eat your wirenuts!

No worst then a customers rotwhiler running off with your screwdrivers and chewing the handles off:mad:

I know I can get CRS and Carry and leave hand tools out in the truck or other various places, but this day I thought I was going nuts, every time I went to grab a screwdriver or nut driver, or even my Kline's I could not find them anywhere, I actually started suspecting the homeowner, not trying to look like I was loosing my mind, I asked the homeowner if he was using any of my tools, but he said no. then his boy came inside and said his dog has about 8 of my tools out in his dog house, homeowner said he had never seen him do that before, and handed me 2 hundred dollar bills, told me to replace them. handed one back and told him a hundred was way more then enough.

I'll never forget that day, I had really thought I lost my mind.

I don't think I would worry about it, that is only #2 of 4 switches, I'd just use one of the other three. ;)

Sawzall out a notch in the big door - make nice square cuts - then re-attach the cut out part with hinges. Whenever you want to open the big door, open the little notch door first.
I like the residential load center for a house panel.
