Thanks mate. The panel is a made form an insulating material called switchpanel. 3 phase meters are mounted on the front of the panel, there are 7 x 3 phase meters and 1 single phase meter for the house. This switchboard is for a set of 7 industrial units that are part of one complex.
This is so strange looking to me. It’s nice work, what kind of enclosure is this and what is the specialty paneling on the door for? Really curious.
That isn't the door, it's the panel for the board. What's weird to me is the cables looming up for the panel not down.
Looks like 3 phase protection & distribution.
It would be looped up so there is a bit extra cable so that if there's ever a fault they can easily re-terminate.
Nah, that loop is there so that the black panel can swing open easily without straining the cables
yes but the reason it would loop up and not loop down is so there is the excess.
Exactly, and yes also for a bit of extra cable in case it is damaged in a fault.
That black panel is an non-conductive, flame resistant panel commonly used in switchboards/metering equipment in Australia.

This looks so pleasing. Are you a electrician? What speciality does this type of work?
Thanks mate! Yes I am an electrician but I build switchboards for a living 😊
Looks great, interesting that there is no OCPD between the feeders and the meter board
There are 80A fault current limiting fuses before each meter, mounted on the switchpanel underneath each meter.
