Hi all,
Recently, I had to segregate a large enclosure between AC and DC and interlock the AC Doors. I started thinking should this be applied to junction boxes as well.
One of the reasons to interlock the doors is to prevent the casual person from opening the door and accessing live voltage.
Our junction boxes have the motors wired inside them. Should they be interlocked as well since there could be 480VAC available at the terminal blocks?
This is more of a thought experiment but wondered if anyone else came across this.
