In doing my preparatory work imagine my surprise when I popped open the meter box and was greeted with 200 amps to the box! So the wires that feed into the house have been covered with an inhibitor, but the wires from...

    Check out my 100A subpanel!

    Thank you for posting what you are doing with the install of your box. ;) I have been trying to figure out how to proceed with my project and it never occurred to me to remove the drywall *itself*. Replacing it with plywood is slick.
