I have recently purchased (3) 200 amp 3R QO load centers with feed through lugs.
2 from supply house and 1 from box store.
Have issues with all three out of the box.
1- Interior cover was wedged in place and had to be pried out. Then had to take a die grinder and trip up the edges so it would fit.
1- Door hinges were spot welded in a way that the door would only close if you pulled on it down and to the side.
1- Had a dent in the top which appears to have been at manufacture.
There’s no sign of paint chipping to show it was done after.
There must be very little QC at all .
Have had zero issues with Siemens and Cutler Hammer .
Even Homeline has been better quality even though I believe the same cans are used for both the QO and HOM .
