I could consider the EMS-HW50C hardwired unit with the remote display. The remote display option would simplify the wood working issue.

The question remains is whether the plenum space behind the breaker panel is a good place to install the main EMS unit. It is possible or more likely a jungle of unbundled wiring to all of the field devices. I don't want to attempt to slide out the breaker panel if it is ill-advised. Doing something that appears to be simple can sometimes result in "oh s***, now I have done it" moments. My engineering background has grounded me in asking questions from those with actual experience.

Is there another location between the exterior power connection and the breaker panel that I can intercept the supply power lead? Inside the endcap cabinetry maybe?
