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.

    Thailand, so I assume 220V/400V, like here, but not sure about TT or TNC-S supply.  Does one consider the neutral to be potentially dangerous as we do here ?

    How do the wires get attached to the bus, and how do they get through the perspex cover ?

    There is a single point of failure if the incoming neutral drops off, and that is quite a lot of outbound circuits - how close to overloading the internal incoming wiring are we? Equally I do not think it looks that bad. It may not be standard UK method, but for example compared to South America, this is very high class.how is the not fitted cover earthed  when fitted?
