Utility room panel

[Flex]

Prints call to mount a subpanel on a wall across from a slop sink. It would be 3'6" from the edge of the sink to the face of the panel. Is this a compliant installation? I cant find anything in the NEC yet.

As long as you maintain working clearance if front of the panel you are fine

The idea that an electrical panel can't be installed within 6' of a water source is another one of those electrical myths that electrical professionals seem to keep perpetuating.

As already posted as long as the working space clearance requirements of 110.26(A) are maintained you can install an electrical panel right next to a sink.
