Q. Where are panel boxes used?

Electric panels must be positioned in an area that is roomy devoid of obstructions easy to access and well-lit. The location of your primary breaker board should be away from where most of your household's occupants spend their time. To make it simpler for them to turn off the power in case of a fire it is advised that the residential electric panels be linked outside the residences. As long as water cannot reach the secondary panels they may be installed in other spaces such as the bedroom.
