Some comments please

OK chaps. Bearing in mind this is in Thailand would you be overly concerned, yes it does have a metal cover over the works.


This is a custom board made to fit in a particularly awkward space, I have a local colleague who is branding it "unsafe" but is really unable to explain what his issues are.


Thoughts?

EDIT Please ignore the Schneider labelling on the box, the guts is all non-standard it was just cheaper to buy a suitable unit and remove the works than to get a custom one made.

    Hello, some thoughts below...


    Cant read the writing on the incomer but is it wired backwards? 

    How are all the earths managed? 

    Are the busbar connections up to the job (locknuts, area.  etc) 

    I assume the metal cover covers everything except the protruding parts of the switches.  If you have to remove the cover to operate the switches then there are too many live parts that can be touched for my liking.

    Cant see an earth on the case either or a provision for fly lead to earth the cover

    Cabling is neat enough but if loaded anywhere near its free air rating heat will be a problem in those bundles.

    Hope this helps.


    Reminds me of one of those 'spot the difference puzzles' and no doubt other will raise more questions.
