I need to install a large 1000 A switch-gear for outside mounting, but the client is short on money and only wants this panel for a few years. They stated that they would accept a used panel. I am looking for a 208 V 1000 A panel with five single phase switches, seven three phase switches, a few spares and a main switch. Any ideas?

Re: Used panels
I believe it is against the rules in our jurisdiction to install used equipment, how about yours?

Re: Used panels
I don't know about used panels but you should be able to save on the breakers. They call them reconditioned ( they take them in the back and wipe them off ). I have bought large 3 phase breakers from their local distributor.

Re: Used panels
As long as the customer is acutely aware that the equpment is less than new (used), and you take NO responsibilty for it's effective use or life span - as long as the understanding is the installation is "temporary"...and this agreement/understanding is in WRITING, including an approximate date for the swap over to "new"...I would use "used".
