What is the front of a dist board called

[Baddegg]

Susan?





Words word’s words

 

[mainline]

Don''t know if it's a universal term, but in Australia we would call the second cover inside the front door, that you can see and operate the circuit breakers through, the 'escutcheon' from the old French escuchoun.

Do the lids open up or down

 

[James]

O god, don’t bring the French into this!


It’s the “front” or “front panel”

Then you’ve got “the flappy bit” which is the door to access the breaker switches.

My inner child came out when i read Flappy bit!!
