1. A method of determining a functionality of an electrical panel, the method comprising:
providing information relative to an electrical panel to a computer vision software, wherein the information comprises a digital image of a set of circuit breaker slots of the electrical panel;
analyzing, using the computer vision software, attributes of the electrical panel at least partially based on the information, the attributes comprising an indication of empty circuit breaker slots of the set of circuit breaker slots and one or more symbols identifiable by the computer vision software;
calculating an overall electrical power capacity of the electrical panel based at least in part on the attributes of the electrical panel;
calculating an electrical load on the electrical panel based at least in part on the attributes of the electrical panel; and
generating a report comprising an unused electrical power capacity of the electrical panel at least partially based on the electrical load and the overall electrical power capacity of the electrical panel.
