Looks good, but seem to be missing some conduit supports.

Are these main breaker panels with the neutrals and grounds bonded? Because that SE cable only has three conductors in each.
Also, how much would it cost for you to package up one of those fuse panels and ship it to me?

Yeah, that's actually a building code violation, pretty much wherever you are.

Panels listed that way? I hate to see flush covers on surface panels myself (pet peeve), but I'd be hard pressed to come up with something that makes that a violation. The panelboard cabinet is the same, regardless of what.

I wouldn't know Marc, don't handle that type of stuff often. Just looks very odd, hence my question. Thanks for your patience.

Okay. I thought you were going to pull some zinger out of the White Book I'd never heard of before. You still might...

That pipe on the farthest left side with a 90 and a kick going down to the panel doesn't have a strap within 3 feet. Hell not even within 6 feet!
