Panels on adjacent walls

[sixt9ss]

If two 20" panelboards are installed on adjacent walls(in a corner),can they be butted together and still maintain the 30" working clearance? Is there a minimum side clearance?

Re: Panels on adjacent walls

Yes you can do this, the 30" clearance does not have to be centered on each panel, this no different from filling one wall with panels right next to each other.

If you are surface mounting the panels make sure you leave a space from the corner equal to the depth of the panel with covers installed.

The edge of one panel can not go in front of the other one.
