What happens here

The miswired subpanel, previously installed by a handyman, is carefully disconnected and removed from its position. This includes removing the existing incorrect wiring. To allow for proper and code-compliant connection of the new subpanel, sections of drywall around the panel opening are cut and modified. This ensures that appropriate conduit connectors and wiring can be routed securely and safely.

Goal: Remove the faulty subpanel and prepare the wall for correct installation
