When the pipe portion 2b is cut out to the maximum, the notch 2c is closed by a panel 7 from the inside of the box body 2, and the panel 7 is screwed from outside the lower side surface 2a of the box body 2 with screws 8, 8,. Screw 8 and 8 to fix.

The position where the panel 7 is screwed and fixed is not particularly limited, and may be any position as long as it is the lower side surface 2a of the box body 2.

A second embodiment of the circuit breaker storage box according to the present invention is shown in FIGS. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to these drawings.

In the circuit breaker storage box 1, a wiring hole 7a is formed on the panel 7, a bushing 9 is attached to the wiring hole 7a, and electric wires are input and output from the bushing 9.

The position at which the wiring hole 7a is formed is not particularly limited, and may be any position on the panel 7.

A third embodiment of the circuit breaker storage box according to the present invention is shown in FIGS. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to these drawings.

In the circuit breaker 1, locking portions 7b, 7b are formed at the longitudinal end of the panel 7, and wiring holes 7a, 7a are formed on the panel 7 so that the locking portions 7b, 7b are formed.
