pull out fuse block missing in action

[jodil]

This is a stupid question, I know... But I'm still learning!

So if the fuse block is missing (see below) does that mean that whatever is running off of that connection has NO power?

Ok, thats what I thought. But the panel cover says that fuse block was for upstairs lights, and everything there had power, so I started to second guess myself..

Thank you Bob!

There is probably another electrical box in the house... did you see one?

The home has been rewired and the power for that area is coming from somewhere other than that panel.

Lots of rust inside that panel ....

Not to mention that all abandoned wiring should be removed, including panels.

Tom's right.

It's a good argument for a Wiggy. Test the lugs and see if it's still hot.

Regardless of whether it is or not, it should all be removed.
