The fact that this panel is recessed is one of the reasons it is an NEC violation....
However,
Surface mounting is not required in Wisconsin.
Fittings are required.


This shows how important it is to read your local codes.
From an outsiders view point, I believe residential installations may have the biggest number of NEC 'local variances'.

For sure, here in Mass we have about 60-70 amendments.

It was because of those local changes I had prefaced my post with this.:)


To start, let me make clear I know in many areas they allow the things I point out are NEC violations.


However there is a difference between inspectors allowing something and true amendments.

As you state it is important to know the local rules.
