    This motley collection of old service equipment until very recently provided the electric power to the "cleanout house". Don't forget y'all -- the only rule for all that was "take anything you want" -- though I couldn't take all this stuff myself at that exact time, I nonetheless made it clear that when it *did* come down I wanted it all... <lol>...and as matter of fact there's still at least another old electrissical box there or two that have yet to be disconnected/recoverable. ;-) :-)

    Besides the old weatherhead (and a half) and round meter box, there's a matching pair of old CUTLER-HAMMER fused disconnect switches with a smaller old SQUARE D example appended on (upper LH) plus a much more typical 4th box containing nothing but a two pole conventional circuit breaker under that. All but that box likely date from the 1940's or so, when that house was first built.

      SO much fun that all y'all can appreciate this otherwise pile of 'rusty old junk'. <smile><LOL>

      THANKS to lptools, fortapache, Newfld, vetraio50, Irishcollector., yougottahavestuff, & Manikin for your <love it>s!!

      Before long I'll probably dis-resemble most of this, to make it easier to display the mostest-funnest old switchboxes with their wonderful rusty patina, alongside all the rest of my collection of *other* assorted similar kinds of various sorts of electrical switch/disconnect/fuse boxes...I've only shown a few of the prettiest ones of those over the years here but trust me -- there's *plenty* more... ;-) ;-) ;-)
