It depends on exactly who is doing the defining. Read the fine print to see what is included/excluded by your particular jurisdiction or vendor. Even dictionaries cannot be relied on for "exact definitions." The very concept is unsound, except maybe for mathematical posits.

The cubical is usually the "housing" that the VCB truck sits in. above it there will be the bus-bar and CT chambers. The metering and protection may mounted above the chambers or remotely. Basically the cubical is where the truck sits.

NO I refer to the cubical as the space the truck fits in to.

Panel would refer to the entire shooting match!
