Answer:
Hey Edgar thanks for your question. Panelboards are not prohibited from being located in laundry rooms; they are often located in laundromat. Overcurrent devices are not allowed to be located in the vicinity of easily ignitable material, such as in clothes closets as stated in 240.24(D). A laundry room is probably not the best location for a panelboard but it is not specifically prohibited.
