I take out the metal cover panel and the breaker mounts and keep the ground bus bar.
This is the cheapest workable solution I have found for club railroads and informal private tracks. It is very convenient when mounted on a 4x4 post. I have also made a great item to help when working on the signals (hold laptop, tools, etc.). No clamps to hold it, just lift, put it around the post and lower it to grip the post (see attachments).
The requirements:
- Water resistant (watertight better but not required)
- Door hinged on the side (screw covers are too inconvenient, screws strip out, get lost, etc.)
- Desirable to be lockable
- Not a "surplus" item that will go out of stock (i.e.: want to be able to purchase them year after year)
- Size: many sizes will work but about 4" thick is good and various sizes can be used for different configurations from about 10"H x 6"W to 18"H x 12"W
If you know of boxes that might be worth looking at, please let me know.
Now to the question at hand. I have need for an enclosure that will be unobtrusive in formal landscaped areas.
My thought is that such enclosures must exist for irrigation and/or landscape lighting.
Without being extravagant, theses can be somewhat higher cost to go with the surroundings.
Anyone have any ideas that might fill the bill?
