Separating panel replacement from a relocation
A relocation may affect both incoming conductors and existing branch circuits. Mark the proposed position and discuss access to all affected wiring routes.
Mark the old and proposed locations on a sketch. Extending or rerouting existing conductors is a different task from replacing equipment at the same connection point.
Why does relocation change the scope?
Existing conductors may not reach the new position, and extending them can require accessible connection arrangements and different routes. Incoming wiring and outgoing circuits present separate questions.
A location comparison should therefore include more than the cost of another enclosure. MKB can identify affected wiring, access and restoration so the proposed move is distinguishable from replacement in place.
Details to include with this request
- Existing and proposed positions
- Incoming route
- Branch-circuit access
