Remodel job. There is a 100 a breaker panel in the kitchen. The working space is in question as it has a water heater in front of panel but its a floor type not very high. I oviously want to leave it as is and make it a subpanel running 4 wire ser to it and leave it in place.Called the inspector and he wants the existing panel made into a juction box for working clearance but doesn`t the JB need the same working clearance?I realize the panel will be gone to more so than Jbox.I`m hoping to get some artical numbers to help leave it and make it a sub panel..Thanks.I guess my main question is can that panel stay as is being a sub panel? Please help me with some ref 3`s thanks
