We have a lake cottage in Northern Indiana. In our utility room there is the main panel which is set into the wall cavity, then there is an additional panel that we had added to put in an electric stove. That panel (sub panel??, I don't know my terminology well) is mounted on the wall with a conduit running down through the floor, through the crawl space to the stove. We are getting ready to remodel and I'd like to have those 2 panels combined into 1 and have it sit neatly in the wall cavity so I can put a pretty door on it and hide it a little better. My husband says it's a big deal to have this done and it's likely expensive. We had it mounted on the wall because it was cheap and easy and didn't really matter aesthetically then. First question - What is involved with doing what I want? Wall board can be removed to gain easy access to the panels. Relatively easy access to the new panel from the crawl to move the hole to the wall cavity. Second question - Am I allowed to cover the panel with a pretty door or is there some code that says it has to remain visible and ugly. :) Third - Any rough idea on price? Assuming no other electrical work needed is it a $300 job or a $1000 job? I would say our contractors tend to be on the cheap side, it's in a very rural area. Running the new panel to the stove including having a small guy crawl far back to the stove in a dark creepy place was only about $200. Fourth - Any better suggestions? My goal is to clean it up so I don't have 2 panels side by side looking ugly.

I have searched the internet trying to find an answer to this question and have come up blank. I have a Square D breaker box in my home with a pull out main disconnect. The main has 2 70 amp fuses in it. The home is a double wide trailer from 1967. I blew one of the fuses around closing time for all of the hardware stores in my area. None of them carry a 70 amp fuse of this style, unfortunately. I'm finding a lot of 100 and 200 amp fuses. I can find them on Amazon, but that doesn't help me in an emergency. Luckily, I found a spare in the basement, for now. Anybody have any experience with this type of box? Is it possible to put a 100 amp fuse in this box without blowing any breakers or starting a fire? Im interested in replacing this box when I'm financially able to, but it'll have to do for the mean time. Any help is appreciated.
