fuse panel board labels - how do you solve the labeling problem

Serge
Hi, all!


This is my first post in this community. And I apologize if I involuntarily break his rules. 


I am a developer of an online service that makes it easy to create stickers for electrical panels. Examples of the results of the service are posted below

I have a question for the community, but how do you now solve the problem of marking your electrical panels? Perhaps you use word and excel, or write with a simple marker directly on the shield panel?


I do not know if it is possible to place a link to the service, so if you are interested, write to me and I will give a link. Thanks to all.

    Going back to the labels - I think your graphics would need an update for the UK - two dots within a circle looks nothing like a socket outlet to British eyes (our sockets are rectangular and have three rectangular pins). You might also have to consider other UK peculiarities like twin RCCB 'split load' layouts where some indication of which RCCB feeds which MCBs is usual (and it's never as simple as everything else on the same row).

     



    The service allows you to leave gaps, and outlet icons are presented in different versions.




    Andy, Thank you for such a detailed explanation. For us it is very important.


    In our country, many electricians assemble panels at the workplace, prepare schemes in advance, and mark the electrical panel. They usually do this on a computer.
