Load center
The Square D service upgrade load center allows users to complete residential electrical service upgrades while minimizing the risk of disturbing drywall. According to the company, the product's design simplifies feeding wire via four removable end plates (two plates with 5-in. × 0.5-in. and 2-in. × 0.75-in. knockouts and two plates with 4-in. × 0.5-in. and 1-in. × 1.25-in. knockouts) that provide multiple feed-through points. In addition, the unit is available in 40-space/200A main breaker Square D QO and 30-space Homeline panel designs. A conventional flush-mount cover can be used with either design, and both are available with an optional longer cover accessory that overhangs the panel by 2.75 in. at the top and 3 in. at the bottom, in the event minor drywall damage is sustained.
