i used some powdered insecticide (delta dust/drion) around my electrical service a few years ago. I opened up the meter can today and noticed a white residue coating the interior components and I was concerned. Im doubting there is a code reference to this but but I was wondering:
Is pesticide powder like this conductive? or otherwise corrosive to be used around electrical equipment?
I think its suggested to use these types of insecticides instead of sprays when working around electricity (in outlets switch boxes etc) so I am assuming it is safe.
What do you think?
