Replace main panel with permit and code updates The reason for the visit was to inspect an issue with the dryer not working. When I went to inspect the main panel to check to see if there was an issue with the breaker control in the dryer we noticed charing behind the breakers with a strong burnt smell. I removed the dryer breaker and noticed that the bus bar had severe burning and melting behind it. Due to the severe damage to the bus bar, we are unable to perform any repairs inside of it in accordance with the national electric code. We came back the following day and replace the entire panel with a new service cable.
