Can you put water pipes below an electrical panel (within 3ft) in Canada?
We have this setup at our house and I'm trying to see if there's a way to add a shelf just above the pipes that would 'waterproof' the area to stop any bursts (winter, corrosion) from flooding the panel.

No water pipes or sources of water with in 5 feet of a electric panel. That is the code in quebec.
Moving them would cost too much.
How can I seal the electric panel away?
Put an acrylic shelf immediately above the pipes and seal with silicone on the edges?
