Damaged Panel

[feverdog]

Well, I feel stupid. I've had this panel sitting around in the box for about 2 months. Took it out and hauled it up to my 2nd floor deck to install my panels, and noticed it looks like it is shattered inside...............once I bolted them all together.

Will this work or am I screwed? I'm wiring these in series. Still waiting on my solar generator to get here, so I can't test.

i would remove that for safety . if it draws to many amps the others can get damaged. just my thought on that.. be careful this all cost lots of money
