If it says Federal Pacific, don't even open anything. It's not worth dying over.

My stepmother lost two bedrooms and four or five months in her house over a Federal breaker panel. Fortunately no one was hurt and they caught the fire quick.
For no apparent reason, it just cooked one of the bus bars and melted right through the back of the panel.
