A lot of cabinet for the money. It will be some time before I know the quality of the receptacle. The cabinet is set up for feeding from the side. There are removable side panels with I think 1/2\", 3/4\" and 1\" pipe holes so if you are feeding from the side you just choose the panel with the hole size you want and affix it on the left or right side. There is a removable weatherproof top panel but no hole in it. If you have knock out punches or hole saws you can make your own 1/2 or 3/4 pipe hole and use a Meyers hub which is weatherproof and will allow you to feed in through the top. This assumes the unit is going to be outside in the weather. If it will be used in a weather sheltered situation you can make your hole and just use an offset or other kind of nipple between your circuit breaker panel and this unit. It is pretty well designed.
