Electric Panel question

[Mark K]

Its amazing how many Federal Pacific boxes are still in use today. I saw a lot of them but didn't condition any report, just mentioned the brand and capacity when I came across one.

My uncle has a very nice house in Marco Island, FL and last time I stayed there I noticed it had a FP box. I told him he should consider replacing it (money is NO object to him) but he didn't seem too concerned. Oh well. Its only occupied about 10-15 weeks a year. When/if it burns, hopefully nobody will be staying there.

I do the same. Even though I know they are inherently not safe from personal experience. It's not so much that the panels themselves were the problem. It was always the breakers that caused the problem.

Maybe its a Federal Pacific breaker box.

It's not.
It's clearly stated on the door of the panel what the brand is.
