Relocated subpanel

For compliance with current codes, the breaker panel had to be moved out of the closet.

Perfect new spot was in the garage, eleven feet away, along the same wall. It cuts most wires shorter, minimizing splices. The stud bay there also happened to be a little wider than usual, allowing a good fit for the box.

I hired a skilled electrician for this, but to expedite his work, I did the demolition, attic clearing and even some wire pulling.

Total cost = $1,416. Total time ~ three half-days of supervision.
