Repurposing Electrical Boxes

I picked these up for free, they were discarded from a reno.


(Side note: Old electrical equipment is terrifying.)


I considered using the breaker panel as a sub panel when wiring the shop, but Federal Pacific (aka Federal Pioneer / Stab-Lok) got a bad reputation for making circuit breakers that didn't break when the circuit overloaded.  These boxes will be gutted and used for other projects that don't need to meet any electrical safety codes.
