The new panel is in. I programmed 4 hours, it took 4.5 included failing the first time. I got dinged on grounding as I knew I would if I got dinged. The range is 220 but is 2 hots and a bare ground. Inspector said that bare ground is now considered a neutral so I had to tape as much of it as I could and extend it also. Among other issues the old box had was no ground strap grounding the box itself to the bus, so had to fix that too.
Here's a pic of the new work, waiting for the PoCo. New box is the taller one on the left. Oh yeah, that power control module hanging under the old box? Inspector said it is not rated for inside, so had to hang it outside. PoCo came to put the power back on and said he didn't know if it was rated for exposure.
He's checking. He says normally they put them inside where the WH is. Just one more thing that wasn't done right the first time.
