Category Summary
What is a panel schedule?
A panel schedule is a table that maps each circuit breaker in an electrical panel to its load, wire gauge, and breaker size. It is a required part of electrical plans and helps installers, inspectors, and maintenance electricians understand the panel layout.
Residential vs. commercial panels
Residential panels are typically single-phase 120/240V with 100A or 200A main breakers. They serve lighting, receptacles, kitchen appliances, HVAC, and dedicated loads like dryers, ranges, and EV chargers.
Commercial panels are three-phase 208V (or 480V for larger systems) and include circuits for rooftop units, emergency lighting, exit signs, fire alarm panels, and other life safety systems.
Space utilization
Each panel has a maximum number of spaces. Single-pole breakers take 1 space, double-pole breakers take 2. Good practice keeps 20–25% of spaces open for future expansion.
