    I was hoping someone would chime in to say what the issue was. I wasn't sure. But now I know.

    That's probably an old mobile home by the looks of the chincy lumber connected by staples. The electrical inspector would only look at the inside of the circuit breaker box after the walls were built.

    Cough, I mean, well, yeah, of course!
    I know the real problem here is that the wires aren't nailed into those flat boards with the fancy patterns on them. And those old woolen sweaters in the walls are dirty and need to be washed.
