Prefabricated electrical circuit breaker panel cover extension used in a flush mount application
A breaker panel cover extension can be installed above or below a breaker panel and can hide imperfections or openings in drywall immediately above or below the breaker panel. The cover extension can include a panel member having a top edge, a bottom edge, a left edge, and a right edge defining an area of the panel member. The panel member having a front face and a rear face. A thin and narrow bottom flange extends downwards from the bottom edge and away from the panel member. The thin and narrow flange can extend along the length of the bottom edge. On the rear face of the panel member, below the top edge, two or more brackets can be coupled to the rear face of the panel member. Each bracket can have a coupling member configured to engage the cover extension to the drywall.
Irrigation control box with offset hinge assembly
An irrigation control box can include a housing base having a first sidewall, a second sidewall, a top sidewall, a bottom sidewall, and a back wall. The box can include at least one hinge post. An offset hinge assembly can include a hinge assembly frame defining a hinge assembly interior, a first attachment structure positioned at least partially within the hinge assembly interior and configured to releasably attach to the at least one hinge post, and a rotational attachment point. A facepack can include at least one hinge point configured to mate with the rotational attachment point. In some cases, the facepack is configured to rotate about rotational attachment point of the offset hinge assembly with respect to the housing base when the housing base and facepack are each attached to the offset hinge assembly.

Electrical panel cover fastening system
An electrical panel cover fastening system includes a disc and a post. The disc includes an outer surface, a first inner surface, a second inner surface, and a side surface. The outer surface is disposed on a first plane. The first inner surface is disposed on a second plane. The first plane is disposed substantially parallel with the second plane. The second inner surface is disposed on a third plane. The first inner surface is disposed adjacent to the second inner surface. The post includes a first end and a second end. The post is disposed on a first axis. The first end of the post is coupled to the first inner surface of the disc. Where the post is rotated, the disc is thereby also rotated about the first axis.
Electric load center
An electrical load center for residential and commercial buildings includes an enclosure, a cover assembly, and a panelboard. The panelboard includes an insulated base, first and second bus bars, each of the first and second bus bars having an elongated main member, a plurality of connecting members, each of which is integrally formed from an edge of the main member, and a plurality of conducting members integrally formed from each of the connecting members. The panelboard further includes at least one neutral bar. The neutral bar is preferably I-shaped and includes a generally vertical main body, and transverse upper and lower members. The transverse upper member is preferably thicker than the transverse lower member and includes an outward taper from a top surface to a bottom of the transverse upper member to provide a greater contact surface area.

RISK REDUCTION OF ELECTRICAL HAZARDS
An apparatus includes an enclosure, a power switch, one or more power converters and a wire. The enclosure may include a door and one or more apertures. The enclosure may be mechanically attachable to an external side of an industrial control panel with the apertures aligned to one or more openings in a wall of the industrial control panel. The power switch may be mounted inside the enclosure and configured to switch electrical power from a line-side power line to a load-side power line. The load-side power line may be configured to transfer the electrical power through at least one of the apertures. The power converters may be configured to generate a low-voltage electrical power from the electrical power. The wire may be configured to transfer the low-voltage electrical power through at least one of the apertures.
