Re: Panel in Return Chase?
No.

BUT ... many panels are plenum rated.

Be that as it may, looking at that closet, that is "environmental air" passing through there, the closet is not a "return air plenum".

The greater issue I see, which may not be a problem other than looking like it in the photos is ... is there 3 feet in front of the electrical panel at the left edge (toward the angle corner)?

Looks to me like it is not going to make the 3 feet minimum working space in front of the panel.

Good eye! That door actually can hit the panel when in full open position.
Sounds like it does not work then.
