I went to a home about a month ago, realtor ref. The guy had a very corroded panel, when I had gotten there he already had a electricican look at it and the other electrician was going to do something cheap, so the HO wants nothing to do with me. Flash forward to today realtor calls me, this guy didn't fix anything in the home. The panel came back up on the home inspection, normally home inspectors are wrong but this time I agree with him, the electrician just vacumed the panel. When I saw it, the panel was corroded about 3/4 the way up the panel, the buss bars were corroded, the fasteners that hold the tabs for the breakers to the buss bars were corroded. The wood behind the panel was rotted, the basement was filled with water at sometime. My opinion is the panel should be replaced. Any opinions?
