ABSTRACT:
An enclosure for an electrical distribution panel includes a box having a front opening covered by a front panel having a cut-out portion. An insert is seated in the cut-out portion and includes removable knockout panels for access to circuit breakers mounted in the enclosure. The insert may be provided with a c over which enhances the appearance of the enclosure and provides a waterproof seal. The size of the insert is selected based on the type of circuit breaker to be mounted in the enclosure. By changing the size of the insert, the enclosure can be used with different types of circuit breakers. The enclosure can also be adapted for indoor or outdoor use. The enclosure avoids the disadvantages of conventional enclosures which are designed differently for different types of circuit breakers, and include entirely different components for indoor and outdoor use.
