I'm looking into a circa 1960/70,s single family residence. They have an old circuit breaker panel that I cannot not make out the manufacturer, the painter spray painted the interior of the panel (buss, lugs, everything) before the breakers were installed and no labeling on the interior of the cover.
My question, is it code compliant to offset nipple into a box with an AFCI dead front or receptacle from the panel to feed an existing branch circuit that we will be adding to. ( existing wiring is fine NM, full size EGC ).
I'm not replacing the panel because of the owners financial situation.
Thanks for your input!
