Any Pointers on electrical layout for a fabrication rig

Trying to find the best approach to this problem has the cable trays between the sockets of the units will not cater for large cables above 25mm2 so was looking at having to change the design from a looping cabling system between Main sockets on each floor there are 4 floors in total on the rig to each Power Cluster.So that each Power Cluster have there own Power Supply cable going to them individually so we can look at cutting down the size of cabling to fit the cable trays.But to do this i'm after some electrical layout ideas from the Forum.The starting point of the electrical layout are 3 125A Sockets (ie.400v,230v & 115v) which have an interconnection at two ends (ie Left Side and Right Side) so there is a need for a change-over switch.Then from there on looking at adding a large distribution box for the individual cables to connect to the various sockets of the Power Cluster.

    Hi Andy,

    How would you go about laying out the electrical layout for the Welders to operate from?. Bearing in mind this is a mobile rig that can be moved so the plugging in of power from an outside source to the rig is necessary. Its like a long extension lead.

    Regards
