    Installing a New Main Breaker Box
    I have a 98 year old house which has a main fuse box on the outside of the house. I want to install a new breaker box inside of the house in a closet. How do I install a breaker box inside and prepare it for the electric company to hook up to it?

    I have a car that has a carburetor on the motor. I want to rebuild the carburetor.
    Can you tell me everything I need to know to rebuild the carburetor?



    This is a parallel example of what you just asked. If you have to ask this in such a broad and general way I would HIGHLY suggest you call a pro to have this job done.

    Besides, you cannot have the panel in a closet if it is used for storage of flammable materials such as clothes.
