Hello,
I wonder anybody knows where to find cover for an old fuse 100 amp
electrical panel box? It can be 40 something old, things work find but
the cover is missing.

Obviously, the best is to know the brand and model. But I was unable to
tell as there was no label or mark noticeable anywhere. The dimension
is 9 3/4 x 19 1/2 (inches). Here's a pictu

Please let me know if you recognized the brand/model, or ever better,
know where I can buy a cover for it.

Much appreciated!

John


As was mentioned by another poster, it's time to consider upgrading to
circuit breakers.

You will not be able to obtain a replacement from the factory even if the
company is still in business. I think that your best bet is to ask your
neighbors, since they may have, or had at one time the same fuse panel. If
one of them gets an upgrade ask for their old cover. You can search EBAY,
old junk yards, salvage yards, maybe even an old electrical supply house,
but without a brand name and model number it will be extremely difficult to
find a match.

Another option is to have one fabricated. You will need to make a detailed
drawing with specific locations and measurements of each necessary opening.
Though without an example to show the fabricators it may not be a perfect
fit. It will also cost more per unit to make just one than it would to make
10 or 20.

Your best option is to have a few electrical contractors come in and give
you some prices on a new circuit breaker panel and possibly a service
change.
