Can we legally use the 2006 breaker panel to replace this year's panels?
The old (2006) one would replace the 20/30A and maxi(40A) panel as well as the power distribution block.
Thanks

If you are talking about the IFI smart panel, then no it is not legal.
<R45> Items specifically permitted on 2007 FRC ROBOTS include:
Additional HITEC HS-322HD Servos.
Additional Victor 884 speed controllers and Spike relay modules, as needed.
One additional 4-slot Maxi-block circuit breaker panel and utilize it on their 2007 ROBOT in
addition to, or in replacement of, the circuit breaker panels provided in the Kit Of Parts.
One or two additional 2-1/2” CIM motors (part #FR801-001) in addition to those provided in
the Kit Of Parts. This means that up to four, and no more, 2-1/2” CIM motors can be used
on the ROBOT.
One additional 3” CIM “Minibike” motor (part #FR801-005). This means that up to two, and
no more, 3” CIM “Minibike” motors can be used on the ROBOT.
Additional solenoid valves, air cylinders, and connecting fittings.
One or two additional Clippard air storage tanks (Clippard Part Number AVT-32-16),
equivalent to those provided in the kit. This means that up to four, and no more, Clippard air
storage tanks can be used on the ROBOT.
Pneumatic pressure relief valves identical to those provided in the Kit Of Parts (Parker Part
Number PV609-2).
<R46> Items specifically PROHIBITED from use include:
Batteries different from, or in addition to, those provided in the Kit Of Parts.
Circuit breakers different from those provided in the Kit Of Parts. Note: the Snap Action
brand circuit breakers provided have unique “trip” characteristics. No substitute brands are
permitted.
Fuse panels different from those provided in the Kit Of Parts.
Electric motors different from, or in addition to, those in the Kit, with the exception of those
specifically permitted by Rule <R45>.
Any air compressor other than the one provided in the Kit Of Parts.
Hydraulic fluids or hydraulic components.
Lasers of any type.
Speakers, sirens, air horns, or other audio devices that generate sound at a level sufficient
to be a distraction or hindrance affecting the outcome of a match.
Electric solenoid actuators (note: electric solenoid actuators are NOT the same at
pneumatic solenoid valves – the latter are permitted, the former are not).
