Dwelling Unit Panel location

[Npstewart]

Have a existing multi-family building with a electrical panel located behind a door in the laundry room. Violation of working space?

Im pretty sure there is no code violation for a panel located behind a door but just wanted to check. I know it can't be located in a room with easily combustible items such as a closet, and must have the standard clearences of 36" in front and 30" side to side.

Thanks for the help.

As long as the panel has clearance when the door is closed you are good to go.

Thats what I figured. Thanks!

I prefer this location where stuff is not as likely to get stacked in front of panel.
